The stay was OK. There weren't enough staff members working. Our room was fine; until 4 in the morning when we were awoken by an extremely loud train honking it's horn directly by our room. Who knew the hotel was literally next to a train track?!! There weren't any family friendly restaurants for dinner. So we had to drive off of the property. And breakfast this morning was less than stellar. I thought it was going to be much nicer than it actually was. Disappointing.
