The website said they have a hot tub, they do not. The pool was freezing. We brought it to the night manager's attention, he said it was exactly where it was supposed to be. If your looking for relaxing in a pool or hot tub, go somewhere else.

No hot tub :(
The information about this hotel said there was a pool and hot tub. The hotel has gotten rid of the hot tub and they are pretty strict about their pool usage. You have to sign a waiver. The rooms were very large and spacious but they kind of smelled funny and definitely gave off the vibe that this is a super old hotel with a super cheap makeover.

TOO NOISY
There happened to be a family that checked in that had many kids and they were running up and down the halls and jumping on beds above us. I thought it was a bit pricey compared to other hotels. was nice for a one night stay.

Going to bed a roach crawled across the headboard. Would have expected this from a cheaper motel but not this one. Next morning coffee maker didn’t work.

Perfect for groups with kids!
We took a whole gaggle of middle school girls (a Girl Scout Troop) and the staff was remarkably tolerant of our shenanigans. They were polite and friendly to us and to our girls. We needed to set up "camp" in the breakfast nook to eat pizza and they offered us plates and napkins. They didn't have to do that. The pool and hot tub were clean and perfect after a day of city exploring. If you're traveling with kids of any age it's great - a little slide, buckets that dump water, and the pool gets deep enough to play mermaid. The hot tub was great for us olds. Beds were comfortable, showers were hot, and the breakfast spread was generous and the celiac among us even found things to eat.

The property was fine. Wish there had been more options for the breakfast. Like turkey options. My family and I don’t eat pork so that was all bad for us. We planned on eating before going to the zoo. Breakfast there would have held us over. Unfortunately we ended up buying food at the zoo.
