We had a very nice stay for the weekend. The property is very well taken care of, and there was always staff available. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was awesome. There was a wedding one night, but the banquet rooms are away from the rooms, so it didn't affect our stay. Good coffee, which was always full and hot. The free breakfast was one of the best we have had at a hotel. The hotel was close enough to the attractions that we were interested in, which felt convenient.

Breakfast buffet was fair. Frozen scrambled eggs that tasted like it and pancakes that were dried out that I couldn’t cut with my very flimsy plastic knife and fork

Reserved the room far in advance and requested adjoining rooms. Upon check in they were not and the staff at the desk really didn’t care. Have been staying here for years and lately it is always something wrong. I think it’s time to start looking for other options

The stay was fine. Staff were friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was really nice. The pool was lovely and the beds and showers were great. The only issue is the ONE elevator that traveled at a snail’s pace. That definitely needs an upgrade.

Big hotel with a busy pool
Nice hotel. The front desk was amazing and helpful. The swimming pool area is overrun in the evening. Kids are everywhere and parents not making them mind their manners. So if you want to enjoy the pool or hot tub good luck. You will probably have kids all over you and trying to jump into the hot tub. Breakfast was great but needed to be open a bit longer. Great options and lots of sitting room. Vending machines are a scam. They will double charge you so avoid the vending machines in this hotel. Rooms were nice and quiet.
