8.4/10 Very Good! (609 reviews)
The people who work there are soooo nice. 😊 the only thing was it was advertised to have a pool and hot tub. We brought our swimsuits so we were a little disappointed that the indoor pool was out of service. But everything else was awesome. The breakfast was excellent.
