"Room was clean, but could use some updating. Sandy at the front desk was amazing when we checked in. Breakfast was great, especially for it to be complimentary. The restaurant area had a great ambience to it. Very old times! There was plenty of parking in the front, sides and back of the building. I didn’t like how you didn’t need your card to open the side and back doors. But the area seemed pleasantly safe. "

"Just needed a place to sleep. No frills hotel. No the most up to date, but was safe and the room was clean. It was cheap and much better than expected."

"We took the kids for the weekend and it was a little get-a-way. We didn't have to leave the property, everything is right there. The water park was great. The water was actually warm. The hot tub was amazing. The outdoor pool was too cold to get into for me. The kids got in. There's not a lot of vegan options onsite, but it's manageable. Everything costs extra thought so be prepared to pay for arcade, water park fee etc."

"Weird vibe"

"Half of the rooms face the indoor pool. They have clouded out the windows so you can't see, but not enough to block the bright light. The drapes have huge gaps at the ceiling and walls, so tons of light comes in all night long. The pool is closed but they keep the pool lights on like high-noon. But then, in the morning you can't see any daylight because it's a window facing inside the building. It's like sleeping in a cell. Can't turn off the light, but also can't see daylight. It's a nightmare and impossible to get a good night's sleep. I asked to be moved but the front desk lady said she couldn't move me because it was prepaid. Well, if I'd known I'd be sleeping casket, I wouldn't have booked this hotel. I find it ridiculous that they don't warn you this hotel will throw off your circadian rhythm with these stupid windows. Also, the fridge ran all night, constant loud buzzing. It was awful and between the light and the buzzing, it was sensory overload while I'm trying to sleep. I would have been better off sleeping in my car!"

"Apparently we were assigned the handicapped access room (not requested) it was at the very end of a long hallway which is used by the staff as the laundry room (always full of carts of clean and dirty laundry, to the point it is difficult to walk; certainly would be inaccessible if you were in a wheel chair). Breakfast marginal, most foods are in wall mounted dispensers, no variety or change from day to day. Lots of parking though."

"What a beautiful spot to stop! Very east location to find, lots of parking close to either entrance/exit. Extremely fresh and clean rooms. I would 100% recommend staying here if you're in the courtland area. Staff were even more wonderful than the room. "

"Just stopped in for two nights. Front desk staff were extremely helpful!"

"I wouldn't say there was anything unique about the property."
