This hotel is a great place to stay and is very convenient to everything that you would want to do. The staff is great, everything is clean and the onsite restaurants make it easy to get a meal. For the price, cleanliness and convenience, this is a bargain and we have already made reservations to return again. Thank you everyone... More

I was amazed at the customer service I received. Not only me but everyone that went into the lobby. The staff was friendly and helpful. I will use this facility again. The pool and area was very inviting. Rooms were nice. Great prices. The restaurants on grounds were also great.
