The stay was fine. Staff were friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was really nice. The pool was lovely and the beds and showers were great. The only issue is the ONE elevator that traveled at a snail’s pace. That definitely needs an upgrade.

Big hotel with a busy pool
Nice hotel. The front desk was amazing and helpful. The swimming pool area is overrun in the evening. Kids are everywhere and parents not making them mind their manners. So if you want to enjoy the pool or hot tub good luck. You will probably have kids all over you and trying to jump into the hot tub. Breakfast was great but needed to be open a bit longer. Great options and lots of sitting room. Vending machines are a scam. They will double charge you so avoid the vending machines in this hotel. Rooms were nice and quiet.

Avoid room overlooking the pool.
Do not recommend a room overlooking the pool. The INDOOR pool was very noisy until 10 PM. I was traveling with my elderly aunt and she was exhausted from our trip. Unfortunately, I had requested a room with a pool view not realizing it was a loud indoor pool and she could not sleep.
