I would have appreciated a heads up that this property was under renovation construction! With no pool or hot tub, this property should be discounted. No sleeping in, construction and banging started before 8am!

They upgraded me to a bigger room for free because the one I booked was too small for a roller bed for my son. I was fully ready to pay for it and they did it for free without even making a big deal about it. That will definitely get me to go back and recommend to others. Great location. Breakfast was basic free breakfast but perfect for a quick bite and can’t beat free.
