We stayed last month for a few days. The staff were amazing! Beyond nice & helpful. We did have an issue with the first room’s lock, we were instantly switched to another room no waiting. The room was very clean, fully stocked. We did not use the included breakfast or the pool but both areas looked clean & nice. We loved that it was right across the street from mystic village. Will definitely stay here again when we go back!

Our room was lovely. Beds very comfortable. First floor was noisy, could hear small children running around in the room above us the first night. Once they left it was very quiet. Very close to restaurants and attractions, breakfast was great.
