This was a good place to stay. Room was clean and tidy. Checked in online but still had to go to the desk. Parking is underground and there were plenty of spots on Level 2. The pool was disappointing. It’s indoor, cood and quite small. Don’t expect to swim laps. The breakfast buffet was underwhelming for the price. Be sure to bring your breakfast voucher and tell the server you paid in advance.

Property was nice and staff were great. The indoor heated pool was nice but was way over capacity. People had the back door propped out and it felt like people not staying at the hotel were swimming. There was about 50 people all from one family there making it miserable for my family.

Good clean property and rooms. Although it’s pet friendly, there’s no dedicated place for dogs to use the bathroom. Had to walk blocks away to find grassy area. AC in room worked, but if you have a little one in the pullout it blasts them first and directly. Kind of a poor room design.
