Upon arrival, after being courteously greeted, we discovered that the heater in our room was not working. When we contacted the desk they immediately moved us to a nearby room. Both were spotless.

The hotel was very quiet and the staff was very nice. The game room was a very nice addition, just wish the pool had better hours.
