Friendly staff, easy check in process. Accessible to the highway but not so close that it feels like a truck stop. Room was spacious, we were easily able to set up our daughter's cot and still move about well. Decent breakfast options, though pancake machine ran out of batter about halfway through breakfast service. The pool was great! Indoors and in a big sunroom which was helpful withthe rain. Cute patio areas outside, too. We will definitely be back!
