We came with 16 people in our tour group. Staff was fantastic! Especially Adrianna at the delicious morning buffet and Jose at the very cool Beer Garden, they were super friendly and helpful! Rooms were comfortable. Atmosphere was very nice. Location was convenient to walk to nearby shopping and places to eat. Would definitely come back!...
