It's a fantastic place to stay, with exceptionally clean rooms and a friendly staff. The receptionist promptly contacted us after my husband left his iPad in the room. I highly recommend this place.

Hotel is perfect if you’re traveling with children and don’t have a fancy RV to camp but still want to get the camping vibe. It’s in a great location. Fireplaces all over where you can sit and make some s'more's. They have coffee all day. It’s located next to flying flags resort which makes it perfect because you’re allowed to use the amenities which include two large pools. All you have to do is obtain a wristband. They sell alcohol and have delicious pizza you can buy. In the morning they drop you off a simple breakfast at your door which includes a donut, fruit, and a juice. We’re looking forward to coming back.

The suite itself is clean and a nice to place to spend overnight. However, it is very close to the freeway and thus very noisy. The door doesn't block the noise from the freeway.

Beautiful rooms and excellent service. I also love the lounge next door and that you have access to the amenities in the campground next door. There are also several great restaurants within walking distance.

Free breakfast was just a donut and apple. Pay a lot of money for just that and a room. That was not worth the money.

There is no cleaning room service unless you’re staying 3 days. We requested towels and did not receive them. I think they forgot. The eco friendly shower gel in the shower was empty when we arrived and throughout the whole stay. The free breakfast was only juice, a bagel and hard boiled egg.

Was okay for one night
The doors are glass and the walls are thin so I could hear people talking in the parking lot and I was upstairs. The bed was too firm and the bed lights were so bright and harsh. The shower didn’t have a door so water was going everywhere. It was decorated nicely and was clean. I didn’t try any amenities, like the bar or the gym.

Older hotel that has been somewhat renovated. Sliders are old so noise from pool is loud. If you like kids, you are totally cool with this.
