Great Price for what we needed
We stayed Sun-Tues while our house was having some work done, and it was great for what we needed. Room was large and had a small kitchen area. Price was super cheap, and I'm assuming that was due to the waterpark are being closed on those days. But we were fine with that as we wouldn't use that anyway.

Unfortunately this property has seen better days… It is in desperate need of repairs, updating and refreshing. Inside and outside, it is a very “tired” property.

Really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Pool area was extremely well-kept and hot tub was very nice with an indoor/outdoor area. Slides were fun. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. I really liked how laid-back the atmosphere was. Breakfast was great and the hotel had a small market for snacks/drinks. Very relaxing stay!
