I had no problem with the property. My only problem was with the restaurant. As I worked all day and returned to hotel in the evening, so this was my most convenient place to have my dinner. I tried for the first night. Food was delicious and service was friendly. The following night, I was created and had a table. I stayed on my table for 40 minutes. The waitress passed by my table several times. The hostess also passed next to me several times. There was a busboy who passed by my table as well. I tried to grab their attention. It seems that they purposely avoided to make eye contacts. So the remaining of the week, I had to eat elsewhere. But never to this restaurant again. I am going to same area frequently for business. So, never again

We loved this hotel. The layout of our room was great for our family. Also liked the layout of the hotel. Pool area was very nice and clean. Only downside was that the hot tub wasn't working properly and the temperature was the same temp as the pool and the slide wasn't open for the kids to use either.

Only arrived late, needed a place to sleep while travelling. Room was clean and we ended up using the pool and hot tub in the morning before we departed. Would recommend but were not at the hotel more than 10 hours.
