Enjoyed our stay clean and quiet the only thing I would suggest would be signage showing how to find the restaurant as it shows the menu on a wall by the round building so you assume it’s through the doors right there but it’s not you walk right round the other side no biggy but we weren’t the only family looking and wondering Meal was awesome would stay there again

The hotel had plenty of parking space. The room was spacious, shower had good pressure and the bed was comfortable. However, room had a smell, the microwave was dirty, there was no ventilation in the bathroom and room needed better sound proofing.
