Overall it was a nice hotel, the cleanliness and spaciousness of the room was nice, however the pool was unbearable and that's really what my kids wanted to enjoy. The pool area was overwhelming with chlorine to the point the kids were choking and eyes were burning. Literally had to make them get out for the sake of their health. Hotel advertises 90 degree temp in the poor area but it was freezing and the ceiling was dripping all over (very unsanitary). Would not stay here again due to this experience.

Big room for the $

We stayed in the 2 queen suite. It’s the best dollar per square footage around, 600 vs 350. Had separate bedroom and living room with a kitchenette. Quiet room and quiet halls. Breakfast was good. They had breakfast taco items.
