The room was amazing, staff was wonderful, I loved what was around the area and overall it was a wonderful stay. Just know that during the day if there are kids running in the halls you will hear it. Even with that it was quite around 7-8ish and the room/hotel was so nice it was a very small part of an amazing stay

Beautiful property

We checked in, went to our room, enjoyed our first night, went to the front desk with a question and found out that we weren't checked in and had been considered a no show. Annoying, but the wonderful lady behind the desk fixed everything. Beautiful location and the rooms were clean. Pool was freezing and the hot tub was lukewarm, very happy we had a hot tub suite!

We had a good experience overall except the breakfast. That is considered a continental breakfast & should be included in the price. It was definitely not worth $8.99!

Great staff, so-so room

We picked this location due to reviews and proximity to the purpose of our visit. We were placed in a poolside room. The pool doesnt close until 11. We had to be up early. Between the pool noise and the teen girls in the room next to ours, there was no going to bed at a decent hour. Additionally, our room was damp due to the pool outside the door. The bedding, towels and carpet felt wet. The smell of chlorine was overpowering. It was bad. The room was clean but definitely worn. The shower curtain rod had been screwed in multiple times, the shower handle was loose, the furniture had scuffs and wear marks from the vacuum cleaner or something continually rubbing on it. The beds are HARD. The best part of our stay was the staff. Everyone we dealt with was very kind.

Our room was by the stairs and side exit door, and very loud all night. Carpet was so sticky and tacky dirty, your feet would lightly stick to it. Had to wear shoes in the room when walking around.

Quiet, safe area. It is very near shopping and restaurants in Woodbury. Check in was quick and the staff was very friendly. It has free parking on site. The pool is a nice size and the hot tub was great. Our room was very clean and quiet with a surprisingly large bathroom! We will definitely stay again.

Great location in northeast Woodbury.

We usually stay at Marriott properties due to loyalty program, but ended up here bc all three Marriott hotels were booked! This hotel was actually better located in regards to the purpose of our visit. Indoor pool was nice feature if you are needing that for young children/entertainment. Breakfast is not included, but available for a fee. Friendly/helpful staff.
