Fun, family friendly

Each room has a "theme" from the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's. My room has a shower but no tub. I didn't need a tub but those traveling with small children may need to request a room with a tub. The game room has a pool table, tv, and room for those traveling together to congregate. They do a great job of fulfilling the "retro" theme. We loved it.
