The rooms were so cute. The kids loved looking at all the doors to see what they all had. Cute and inviting lobby. Breakfast was good with waffles, juice, coffee, yogurt, toast, and hard-boiled eggs. The staff were nice and helpful at grabbing extra blankets and such for us when needed.

Lobby floor had water spill that was not cleaned up when we arrived and my son slipped on it. Should have been marked for safety purposes. Also milk from the breakfast was not cleaned up under one of the tables when we ate there for dinner that night. No filtered water to fill up water bottles. The bed seemed worn out but still comfy enough to sleep on, just not for firm mattress lovers.

We loved our popcorn themed room ,we had a kids b day party and she was ecstatic!!!

Our door lock broke and so she had to duct tape it to keep shut n open said she would do a discount(manager) but at check out she wasn't there and front desk only offered 10% so 12$ off.

The staff was AMAZING. I haven’t had a better experience anywhere else. She was so kind during our stay and made us feel so welcome. I can’t wait to come back!

There was nothing I didn’t like. The pool was down because of maintenance issues but that’s not big deal at all. I enjoyed my stay so much.

The staff was the friendliest of any we have met on this trip. The themed rooms are the most creative I have ever seen at a hotel! The location was ideal for our cycling group, one block away from the rail trail.

Breakfast was adequate but the space was a bit crowded.

The staff was helpful and friendly. Parking was adequate and location was convenient,

Price was pretty high for what the place offered. The use of the pool as a community asset was a little annoying and the private event room brought a lot of traffic near our room. Breakfast was sub standard.

I loved the ambiance of the facility. I liked that every room had a distinct name/theme. The commons area was very inviting and the complimentary continental breakfast had a great variety.

I can't really think of anything I didn't like.

Great location

The room doesn’t have good lighting. Very low lighting in the room which is difficult with low light eye issues. A comfortable sitting chair to read in would be a great addition to the room. The room is minimally furnished. Room has a cute theme. The bathroom door hit the light globe when opening and closing the door. I was concerned about globe coming down.

Nice themed rooms. Friendly staff, clean!

The beds were a little too hard and the breakfast selection a little too limited.
