The hotel had everything for a quick overnight stay. The rooms were comfortable and clean, providing a great night's sleep for me. While they could use a bit of TLC regarding power outlets, overall, it was awesome for kids to ride scooters and play with others.

The service was extremely helpful, efficient, and friendly. I couldn't have found a nicer place for such a late arrival without a booking. The staff went above and beyond, even assisting with a maintenance issue at my father's cabin.

The hotel provides plenty of room in the two-bedroom unit and is conveniently located close to food outlets. The cabins are immaculately clean, and the staff are the best in providing a friendly and helpful service. However, there were some issues with noise and room brightness. Overall, a very quite place with a great location, but could improve on room darkness and friendliness during check-in.
