quiet resortpoor showerlimited breakfast
The grounds offered many facilities and the resort felt quiet.
Our shower was not great. I noticed the breakfast was not good either as food kept running out. I waited for bread and butter (it took a while).

the resort has a fun jumping pillow. i saw that the playground looks new. the room had amazing outdoor areas. the shower in the room was GREAT. it feels so spacious.
i had some trouble using the heat pump. it took a while for someone to help me. the staff member also did not know how to set it. an electric blanket was offered, but not provided initially.

the motel is close to key attractions. it provides convenient access to various local points. i noticed the proximity to the rose garden which sits directly next door.
Dining

the resort features a buffet breakfast. i thought this breakfast seems good for the price. there are vending machines available. these vending machines sell soft drinks and water, so you have easy access to beverages.
