We stayed 4 nights and only one morning was there cinnamon rolls. The best part of the breakfast was the pancake maker. Room was decent, clean with a small refrigerator and microwave. Free Parking, pool was good but never any pool towels. My boys liked the exercise room.

Our room was large and clean. We didn't expect to have a separate living room but that was a nice surprise! Not sure if all rooms have that but ours did. All amenities were clean and worked well. The breakfast was great. We didn't use the pool but would have used the hot tub if they had one. We'd definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
