Check in went well. The room was spacious, but the smell wasn't good. TV, fridge, and microwave worked well. The bed was somewhat uncomfortable and the pillowcases on the larger pillows were too small. The bathroom and the ceilings could use some updating. A pipe under the sink leaked a little. Breakfast was good, and the staff in the dining area was very friendly. The ice maker nearest the room did not work. The children had a blast in the pool area!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed in a hot tub room and it was by far the best hot tub/whirlpool private room I have ever stayed in. The heart shaped tub was huge and the Jets had a lot of pressure. Only downfall was it took forever to fill up and it blew cold air from the Jets, which cooled the hot tub faster, but we will definitely stay in again. They need to also vent the whirlpool rooms because there is mold growing above it on the ceiling and all the floors get slick in the room from the condensation. The free breakfast at the restaurant was awesome and the service was great. All employees were very kind. Beds were comfortable. I really enjoyed our stay. I highly recommend it.

The room was clean, but the fit and finish of all the tub area and the bathroom was very poorly done. Plus the toilet was loose from the floor. The shower control valve handle came off in our hand. The TV remote wouldn’t work unless you were standing right close to the TV. The barn door going into the bathroom wouldn’t hardly open far enough to get in the bathroom. Other than that it was pretty nice. Ironing board cover look like it had mold in one end of it.

The pool was freezing. I was having a bday party for my 6 year old we had family surprise us and show up to visit and the guy at the desk said that my visitors had to leave in 15 minutes or I would have to leave. They were going to just go ahead and stay there also but not after that I checked out a day early. The pool was freezing the kids couldn't even stand it.

Room was very nice. The heating cooling unit was not turned on so it was a little stuffy when we opened up the door. My concern is I did the online check-in told them the time we were going to be there. We arrived 15 minutes after the time I told them, so you would think that with all this technology and wanting to know when we were going to check in that they would go to the room and get the ambient temperature set up for you to enjoy the comfort of the room and yet that was not done so little disappointed about that but our room location was perfect for our dogs to go outside to walk them. It was right next to an exit door and the room itself was very clean. Bathroom was nice. Everything else was nice.
