"It was a comfortable stay. The hotel and the room were clean and the staff was helpful. The breakfast left much to be desired, nothing fresh, no fruit and lots of processed carbs and powdered eggs. My room was on the 7th floor which had steps, leading to the rooms, so it was no fun carrying a suitcase up and down those stairs. The hotel was in walking distance to all attraction downtown, which I appreciated. I felt safe."

"Beautiful property swimming was amazing. Everything was super clean. The unit we stayed in was nice except both of the toilets didn’t flush well. The lazy river is exceptional, but the tubes are not. They’re too small to comfortably sit in and rest back as an adult. Bring your own. We went on September 1 and they had already closed down many of the daily activities and the bar at the pool, which was a big disappointment. It was still 100° outside, so it was clearly still summer for many of us. But overall, it was an amazing place to go for a little vacation."
