For my family of 6, this was a great option. Where else can you find a room for 6 with a swimming pool and breakfast for under $100? 2 bedrooms with queen beds and a living room with a sofa bed along with 3 tvs. Nice for the kids to watch Bluey while I caught up with March Madness. The hot tub wasn’t working, but the pool was warm and the kids loved it. There were some signs of wear in the bathroom, but the beds were clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again. Breakfast was a basic selection of foods. Bonus tip: Old Chicago is next door. They have an ice cream sundae for under $2 on their children’s menu. Order online and pick up one for each member of your family because who doesn’t like ice cream to end the day

I like the hotel. We've stayed there a few times. It's a great place to stay when you go with another pearsor that you work with, as it gives you each a seperate room to stay in.
