    The kids loved the pool area, especially at night when it was just us. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic—perfect fuel for our busy days exploring local spots. Plus, they were accommodating to our special needs son's support dog, making the stay comfortable for everyone.

    My children wanted more activities for families, like a game room.

    An Exceptional Stay with Incredible Service!

    Our three-night getaway included a delightful breakfast every morning with options that pleased everyone. The most memorable moment? The staff's personal touch—when the manager shaped our towels into adorable elephants for my kids! Don't miss trying the lakeside dining next door. Perfect for families!

    great spot for park lovers and quick city access

    I loved how easy it was to jump into scenic outdoor spaces like Harry Griffen Park, which is just under a kilometer away. The clean and comfortable room was enhanced by the welcoming lobby staff always ready to serve fresh cookies and coffee. it's such a perfect place for a quick weekend getaway to explore the area, and I really enjoyed the complimentary parking too. but I did notice some noise from the nearby freeway during my stay, which could be a little distracting.

    great breakfast but limited amenities

    The breakfast bar stood out with a wide array of tasty options! The cleanliness of the room and bathroom impressed me thoroughly. I appreciated the spacious feel that made the stay quite comfortable, which is great when you’re here to visit family.

    The amenities could be improved. it felt like there were fewer options than expected.

    Noise from the highway was quite disruptive at times.

    sad bacon

    So chill and comfy stay!

    Got to say, this place was really solid for our 4-night getaway. The pool was super clean, and the staff were so nice, always greeting us with warm smiles and cookies! Our room was cozy, both beds were comfy, and those bath towels? So soft! The breakfast was a win, but the bacon was kinda sad. Definitely enjoyed our time here!

    delicious breakfast
    spacious room
    great nearby restaurant
    unresponsive staff
    malfunctioning tv

    The breakfast spread was a total win—think eggs, turkey sausage, and a Keurig for that caffeine fix! Plus, shoutout to the rad room size—it felt like a cozy living room. Don't skip dining next door at Anthony’s Fish Grotto. those fish tacos are the real deal!

    But can we talk about the TV? It was a struggle, barely audible and the remote was a no-show. Also, the front desk staff could use a lesson in hospitality. when I asked about the issues, it felt like I was bothering them. Still, it was a chill stay overall.

    During my stay, the breakfast room was clean and the staff was friendly, especially the woman taking care of the food. I appreciated the convenient location near my son's home, making it easy to access the freeway. The hot buffet breakfast offered a good selection each morning.

    clean room
    decent breakfast
    convenient location
    outdated decor
    loud noise

    The room was clean, but the decor was outdated, which was disappointing considering the photos. I appreciated the decent selection for breakfast, although the breakfast hours could be adjusted for holiday weekends. The location right by the freeway made it convenient for my travel plans, but it did come with noise that was hard to ignore at night.
