We were greeted by professional staff. They allowed us check in early, Gave us multiple keys and brought us towels whenever we needed them.The rooms were nice and very clean. We had a patios with chairs overlooking the pool. The workout room was amazing and the kids loved playing ping-pong. The shower pressure was too strong and we wished our kids could get into the game room, but it was for 18 and older. Other than that would highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel was very nice and comforting. My 2 year old and 11 year old loved the pool. The downfalls of our stay was we got a pool side room that was back in the corner by the laundry room, no pool view and a very intoxicated tenant was loud and obnoxious across from our room, fighting and yelling in the hallway at children, wife and the security staff, for 3 hours. It was addressed by security and then police were called after 3 hours, it should of been addressed asap and not 3 hours later. I did not think the price matched the room.

Very small pool, couldn’t take our baby swimming because the pool was packed with kids playing basketball in the shallow end. Patio door didn’t open, small elevator and hallway ceiling tiles were falling down.
