We stayed in this hotel last night for my daughters 9th birthday. She invited a few friends and was so excited to celebrate with them as her birthday last year was cancelled two days prior, due to covid… restrictions. We had just booked the basic rooms. While we were waiting for our rooms to be ready in the lobby my daughter was greeted by the manager Keith. She proceeded to tell him how it was her birthday and he quietly disappeared and came back with cards to 1 bedroom suite rooms and a small chocolate treat.
Seriously, he made her feel like a Queen in that moment. She had the best time

My family and I just spent 4 nights here. The beds were super comfy, the suite was clean and the staff was extremely friendly. It also has a great pool/hot tub area. We had a really great stay and definitely recommend this hotel!
