We stayed from Friday to Tuesday. During that time, housekeeping gave us fresh towels twice ,made one of the 2 beds once, and emptied the trash once. Granted, the room wasn't really messy or dirty, but they could at least do those 3 things at least every other day.

Great spot! The greeting at 9:30pm was wonderful! The lady at the front desk was wonderful, helpful and even offered a few fruits for the kids knowing we had been on the road all day. They offered a breakfast. They had cheese omelettes, egg white omelettes, fresh fruits, sausage, turkey sausage, pancakes etc. it was a great selection! Even fresh ground coffee. Facilities were very clean!

I was a little disappointed by the lady that was taking care of the continental breakfast. She was not friendly and seemed upset that I asked her to replace the pancake batter bag that was in the machine it was throwing a code regarding the bag needing to be replaced. My experience other than that it was very nice.

Horrible service

Indoor pool advertised but only an outdoor pool available. When asking the front desk about it I was completely disrespectful and only advised to leave the manager a message and I’d get a call some time next week Shower so slippery both my children slipped and fell

Last minute stay/Great breakfast situation

Front desk very helpful. Breakfast staff was amazing - they were set up early and allowed us to start which helped get us on the road sooner. The only downside was the trash bins out front were beyond overfilled.
