The location is great and the property is very nice. My only complaint is that every time I use Expedia the room I get is usually the room for disabilities. My last day we specifically booked a room that was not an ended up with the same old, same old. I wish somehow this trend could be eliminated. It really isn’t fair that when you book a non-ADA room I always get that very wrong.

Bad service and unprofessional hotel restaurant
The location is perfect and our room was nice. However we found sand in the pull couch bed when trying to put my kids to sleep. It was late and they were tired so we had to wait to get clean sheets and bedding. Also the restaurant is in a nice spot. But the waiter was terrible, very rude, and didn’t come back to check on us often. We always have bad service this restaurant. There was also no food left over. I mean how can a restaurant run out of chicken nuggets for kids. It was a terrible Saturday night after driving so far and to not enjoy a nice dinner. Make sure to pick nice waiters who want to be there because we spent $200 on drinks and will tip very generously if deserved.
