Loved that there was plenty of parking. Room was updated and clean. We could hear every step above us from the 2nd floor, but once they went to sleep, it was fine. Towels felt cheap, but overall, we were very happy and would stay there again.

Everything about this place was fun. It was clean. The staff were great and I highly recommend it. My mother-in-law might even want to book a whole family reunion there.
These two pictures are from the grounds from your hotel room. You can walk down and they have a little sitting area areas. It’s just a really cool place.
