Value for your money
The property itself was a bit dated, but the staff and area of the property make up for it. The two floor rooms should all have a full kitchen. The small kitchenette did not make sense for the size of the room, with our large family. The beds were so comfortable, but can use more or better pillows. The pool table and breakfast were a hit with the kids. And the freedom passes are an amazing value that are included in the room.

The property was not up to a hotel cleanliness standard. The bathroom shower did not appear to be cleaned well if it all, the carpets had significant staining and other fixtures were clearly beyond their prime. I would not stay at this hotel again given its state without knowing that there had been a significant renovation.

Lack service, poor breakfast offerings. No one at the desk after 7:30pm. Kids running amuck with no one managing the site. Sheet kept falling off the bed, they were too small for the mattress and no room service for 3 days.
