More of a party scene where young adults are shotgunning beer in the lobby, teens run through the halls banging on doors late at night, and drunken conversations and cackling happen late into the night. While the hotel should technically be family friendly with all the amenities they offer for families, it's not a place to rest or relax at night. The kids got so stressed that we left a night early. The beds are also very scratchy and hard, and many things in the rooms are broken or worn out. Won't be going back.

Our room was wonderful and very well stocked. The bathroom needed just a few small updates, our toilet moved and made a loud noise when you got up after using it. And the shower head needed to be replaced. We will absolutely be back again.
