Everything was very clean and the staff was very helpful.
Great location by family. We didn’t use the pool and only had yogurt for breakfast. Was surprised there weren’t hot options.

was greeted at the desk by Hannah Mae and she was the sweetest girl ever. Gave me a room by the exit that I asked for and showed me all the amenities of the property. Got to the room and it was immaculate and very comfortable. Everything was new and shiny and we loved it all.
