If you want to drink a let your kids roam lol

We waited outside to be let into the lobby. The front door is locked. I rang the door bell no one came. A guest came out an I was inside. Parents drinking in the hallway and parking lot. Kids playing ball in the room above us. We came for a night away watch movie with our kids. It’s a sports teams place to stay. Maybe during the week would be better time to stay with our kids. Deposit was 150$ not 100$ like it states in description. Was scared to go to the pool probably just a big party of kids. We’ll go to fun factor and tcc today instead. Not worth the risk of running into unsupervised kids.

The hotel was decent for being an older hotel. The beds were comfy, but the bathrooms are very small. The train is right outside your window keep that in mind. I love the arcade downstairs and it being next to the pool room. Great spot for kids! The pool is fantastic it’s a nice size. The hotub was a bit murky and had a dead spider floating around. We didn’t find it as clean as it should be. Other than that I also loved having breakfast from the bistro cafe downstairs before we checked out. I would stay again.

Disliked: Staff & service

Decent value but won't return

One night stay. Room is basic but comfortable, walls are thin. Place was over-run with kid's hockey teams during our visit that dominated the hot-tub and pool making it unusable to other guests and ran up and down the halls constantly. It is walking distance from downtown restaurants and shops. A decent value but not likely to return.
