Upon arrival we had a crying baby who needed a washroom for a diaper change, so we were hoping to check-in as quickly as possible, but there was nobody at the front desk, only a sign that said ‘be back in 5 minutes’ - so this clearly wasn’t ideal in our particular situation. Also, the pull-out bed in our room was hands down the most uncomfortable and loudest bed I’ve ever encountered in a hotel stay. It was so loud, that anytime anyone moved on it, it woke the rest of the room, so not only did the person who had to use it have a poor sleep, everyone had a poor sleep. A lot of positive reviews about the breakfast online, and while it’s not bad, it’s no different than any budget hotel breakfast. The positives - the water slide is fun for the kids, the cost for the area is very reasonable, parking was good and it seemed clean.

My family and I stayed for one night, and unfortunately our experience was very disappointing. The main issue was that the air conditioning was not working, which made it extremely uncomfortable for us and caused us to barely get any sleep throughout the night. What made the situation even worse was that we were celebrating my husband’s birthday, which we had hoped would be a special and relaxing occasion. We contacted the receptionist, and an electrician came to check the unit. We were informed that if the air conditioning still did not work, a fan could be provided. Although a fan was given to us, it did not help much, as the room remained very hot and uncomfortable. Considering that we paid for a hotel stay expecting comfort and proper amenities, this experience was far below our expectations and left us very dissatisfied.

Lots of choices for breakfast which is included and runs from 7-10 am. We traveled with a little dog and they have bowls and bedding for your pet if you forget. Staff are all super friendly and helpful. The pool and hot tub are a decent size with the waterslide for the kids! A sauna and gym are also available.

Beds were not queen sized. Was told once i booked that I'd be charged 100 on credit for deposit. When checking in was told i had to pay the full stay up front or pay 200 dollar deposit plus the full room stay. Garbage all over the hallways that stayed there all day. Overflowing trash bins in lobby
