I've stayed here at least 10 times and every time it's clean and quiet. The rooms are large, and one of my favorite aspects is there are 2 sinks; one of which is outside the bathroom, so I can get ready while my family is showering.

Nice, but slightly annoying

The hotel common areas and rooms were clean and nice. Desk Attendant was super nice and knowledgeable. The only complaint we have is the beds were horribly uncomfortable. Oh, one of the 2 elevators in the whole building was broken and wait times were ridiculous.

Lazy river disappointed

The entire reason i booked this hotel was for the lazy river but there are only 3 child size floats. I was told they were either broken or being repaired. Very disappointed. The water pressure also has very little to be desired. It is pet friendly and for the most part clean.

Good morning we enjoyed our stay however I think that the lazy river hours should be the same as the pool hours as well as the height on the slide should be adjusted as the majority of families bring their smaller kids there and then the smaller kids are not able to ride the slide due to being too short or if they are too short, they should be allowed to ride with a parent

Humidity in the hotel was crazy, everything in the room was damp to the touch. Even clothes still in my suitcase were damp when I took them out after a full day in the room. When asked for a change of sheets, so I could sleep on dry sheets, they were dropped off at the door in a trash bag.
