Nice friendly staff hotel. Very Clean, modern, besd are good. Room amenities were nice, though could have used USB-C Plug Chargers over the USB-A. Walls are a little thin, so if next dior neighbor is a bit rowdy (kids etc) you can here them. I like the hotel was just far enough off the hwy so no traffic noise. Close to everything.

Everything was great with check in however, we encountered issues at the pool where thiere several children yelling, screaming, jumping into the pool mot caring that my family was in the pool also with our 6 yr old and 11 month old. After tucking in for the night thier were children running the halls and screaming until 10 pm while my family tried to sleep.

Great place! Nice and clean. Great staff. Bad construction of the building between the floors. You hear people walking quietly on the floor. When kids run or jump the hole room makes noice. Window, cupbords and a general squeack of the entire room. Very nice hotel but not on the ground floor.
