Room (the second one, first had no heat) was clean and comfortable. Heater was very loud. Huge hotel, with pool being a very long walk from room. Breakfast was ok, but limited. Good place for just a one night stay

Overall very nice hotel. It is attached to another hotel, which makes it hard for the gps to find it. The pool and exercise room are in the other hotel and it was a long cold walk through a connecting hallway. Pancake maker was broken which my daughter was bummed out about. Kind of far from food but the front desk was helpful with suggesting local places that deliver.
