I decided to take this hotel for the convenience that is very near to the park , very clean , very spacious and nice staff . The 2 things that I didn’t like I was the A/C is control and o woke up a few times because i was sweating because I’d was off , and the second was the breakfast they use only sausage (turkey and regular ) instead at least the other choice bacon .
