Hotel is adequate for the price. Room was spacious and comfortable. Water pressure in shower was wonderful. Continental breakfast was inadequate with limited offerings even very early in the morning. Sunday was a bit better with a fruit and yogurt available at least. It appears that guests are expected to be content with dry cereal and toast.

Meh, wouldnt stay again.

We actually wanted to cancel and book at a waterpark hotel, but this hotels phone lines went to busy signal for over 24hr period. Whatever our own fault for not booking that first. Walked up to a broken glass bottle right outside the front door. Our room was booked for a family of 5. It only had two full beds and a chair. Thank goodness i packed our air mattress. Again, let it go. They didnt have any extra pillows or blankets in the room, only 3 bath towels, was completely out of body wash and only about 2 uses of toilet paper left on the roll with no additional roll anywhere in room. I woke up at 3:30am to what sounded like furniture sliding around. You can tell the hotel is trying, but for $200 I expected better.
