Well worth the money. Good nights rest
Pros:

Staff was wonderful. We were traveling with three children under the age of 4. We asked if we could be near the pool and away from ppl, they went above to make that happen
The room was super spacious and very clean. Free breakfast hit the spot. Nice luggage carts to help us into the room.
I definitely stay again

Cons:

Nothing to complain about

WATCH YOUR FINAL CHARGES
Pros:

Clean rooms.

Cons:

1. The pool was not available even though we had called to confirm it was. Me and my daughter just wanted a night away from home where the children could swim. Saturday, Feb 21-22, 2026
2. My card was charged for a "cat". "Someone told them we had a cat." We did not have a cat and it's been 4 days, no refund. We entered through the front lobby and exited through the front lobby stopping at the front desk with our cart full of our luggage and to drop off our keys. I asked what the $75 charge was on my card? The receptionist was rude. She told me she would refund my card when the room was checked- by non-english speaking maid.
3. ON Monday, I contacted the management team by rude receptionist. The refund had not been requested. I was assured it would be refunded. Still waiting.
