Storms Happen
Pros:

Location

Cons:

There was a bad storm and the staff seemed unprepared which was concerning. We spent most of a hot humid night without power only to be awoken by several rounds of fire alarms most being false but there was one alarm that we were evacuated. Things happen and I'd hope the staff would be prepared with at least a standard protocol. There was flood damage and soaked floors, and the staff flustered.

Pros:

I like how close they are to King's Dominion, and how nice the staff is.

Cons:

I don't like having to ask for fresh towels everyday, or that every time we go to the park our room keys no longer work. Even leaving them in the car away from metal detectors we still have to get the keys rescanned before they will work.

Pros:

Convenient for a trip to the amusement park.

Cons:

It could have been cleaner. The bed sheets and blankets were stained. The sink and shower still had hair in it from the last guests. The pull out bed in the room wasn’t even made up with sheets or blankets. There were 2 adults and 2 children staying and they only gave us 3 towels.
