Stephen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very clean, spacious, and nicely decorated. The pool was on the small side but beautifully redone. The area around the pool was also fun, lots of chairs, corn hole, and other games. The game room was fun too! I liked that the games were all free. Breakfast was great each morning as well and the lobby was always clean and neat. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful! I could really tell that there is a lot of care that went into this property and that still goes into this property to maintain it.
