The Continental breakfast was good too with quite a few different options to choose from such as scrambled eggs, sausage, pancakes, yogurt, cereal, bagels, coffee etc. They also had a pool and hot tub that seemed popular with guests although we didn't use it. Overall it's a great value for what you get so we would stay here again."

"I loved how quiet it was for the first three days; the last night was very loud and rather busy. I was a little disappointed in the amenities. The bikes were unusable and rusty, and the games were clearly very old and not complete. The blinds in our rooms were also all broken which made sleeping in impossible."
