Facility was clean and everything looked new. My favorite part was the bed. So comfortable! The plan was to check in, then go back to town. Once I laid my head down for a few minutes, I knew there was no way I was going to go anywhere. Sheets, clean, bed nice and comfortable.

The room was so nice, beds so comfy. We were able to snag the room with the balcony and that was really nice also. Breakfast was good, lots of options, pool was also clean. Only downside is hot tub was freezing cold. That was the only let down.
