It was a very pleasant stay.
Pros:

Really liked the free food and cocktails provided each evening. Pretty much everyone expects free breakfast (and their offerings were good, plentiful and sufficiently varied.) Rooms/beds were comfortable and kept clean and well maintained.
The staff was friendly and helpful always wishing you a "Good Morning/Evening"

Cons:

There was no on-site restaurant per-se so you'd have to drive a bit if you wanted to eat elsewhere so it helps to have your own car.

A franchise I will seek out for future trips.
Pros:

Trisha greeted us at check in and was the most pleasant, accommodating, attentive, and "dialed-in" employee I have interacted with in any industry/profession in quite some time. She went above and beyond including my 11 yr. old son in the conversation and tending to his needs, questions, and interests. The amenities were wonderful for family travel (especially a solo parent). The ONLY two things preventing a perfect 10 across the board was unattended children at the pool. I understand kids will be kids as mine was, but he had respectful boundaries when others utilized the area. While the establishment can't control people's children, enforcement of the minors must be attended by an adult would have been great. They were in the bar while the 7 children were in the pool. The second item was VERY MINOR and quite humorous, but I was unaware there was an automatic sprinkler system in the parking lot. I parked, got out of my vehicle, and the sprinkler initiated - I took direct friendly fire! :) My son laughed for hours.
