8.8/10 Excellent! (1,037 reviews)

Room was good size. Had a great view. It was like having a small condo with everything you need. Staff was unbelievably awesome. Marilyn, the front desk who checked us in took care of us throughout the whole duration and was absolutely fantastic. Facility lacked activities for kids but if you want something quiet, safe, and roomy this is the place. Would definitely recommend this place.
