The hotel was overall good. It looks like it has two different hotels out together and we stayed on the more motel looking side compared to the lodge looking rooms. They were clean and comfortable. Small bathroom but the room size was decent. Would have been nice to have a table in the room. The pool and hot tub area was clean and the kids enjoyed the pool even though the water was either salt or heavily chlorinated. The breakfast was decent. The hotel is close to everything we needed. Would stay here again.

The bed was extremely hard. I'm not a picky person but the morning coffee barely had any color in it. Couldn't eat the french toast sticks or eggs, there was something very off putting about the texture and taste. The room was clean and the staff that I met were great.
