The room was clean, the location was quiet. I like the fitness room equipment & sat by the pool. We had an early morning flight so we were not able to enjoy the breakfast. I definitely would stay there again!

The hotel was clean. Check in took longer than I expected. There was one working at the desk and many waiting to check in before desk staff called for second person to help check in.

Everything was excellent, the room, beds, breakfast, the pool was warm for the girls. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
