Amazing property, I had concerns of my room and they re-assigned me a new room. Very accommodating as well! Breakfast could have been better, just bagels, cereal, oatmeal, and muffins- Occasionally yogurt. I would come here again for sure just based on the location and convenience of the location. Great customer service :)

The location is convenient, it’s not on a very busy road but still within about 10 minutes of popular destinations. The room was good but the bathroom was old, small, and the sink was oddly low.

We were pleasantly surprised with the space! Two levels, two bathrooms, two separate sitting areas, great separation of space for families. However, the upstairs was hotter than the downstairs which made if difficult to make everyone comfortable. The breakfast on the go lacked any protein. We would stay there again for the cost.

My room had a lot of issues. The access key they gave me didn't work multiple times, and I had to keep going to the office to get it fixed. Also, there was no cold/normal water in my bathroom, it was only pouring burning hot water and I tried complaining about it and still the issue did not get fixed. The room & bathroom was tiny, and the breakfast had only bagels & bread. For the price, I expected better experience. This felt like a expensive motel.

Staff was not very friendly

When I got to the hotel around 11ish, the front desk staff told me the room was not available until 4pm. The young girl told me the room was not clean yet and told me to come back at 4pm. I ask if I can come around 3ish, she said no only at 4pm. However when i came around 3:40pm, it was already ready for me to check in. This is my first time someone telling me i can’t check in early until 4pm, which is totally ridiculous. I don’t think i will come back to this hotel or recommend to anyone of my family or friends. On top of it, you need to request to get your room remake or clean otherwise they won’t do anything. And breakfast was literally just pastries and coffee not even eggs and bacon.

Great family friendly getaway

The room was clean and comfortable. It had a little patio seating area. I enjoyed the fireplace. The microwave and mini frodge were nice to have. The pool was heated and the hot tub was perfect. Great location, lots of good and shopping near by. The Aquarium was only a 10 min drive.

Our elevator was out of service for the entire stay. We were on the top floor, so very inconvenient to say the least. During our stay there was no attempt for the elevator for be fixed nor was anything offered for our inconvenience. We have stayed here before and never had any issues, so this was very disappointing.

The property was average, power was out when we arrived, not the fault of the staff, but the elevator was also out of service the 3 nights we were there. Plumbing backwards in bathroom(sink&shower), took a long time to get hot water flowing after power restored. Being on 3rd floor didn’t make it easy. Was offered cancellation w/o charge when checking in, but power restored by 430pm, just didn’t expect lift to be down whole time.
