Such a beautiful hotel! The hotel is large, clean and beautiful. Full size Starbucks and restaurant! Arcade was fun but the water park was awesome! Perfect for families. We got a King room and it was perfect with a fridge.

I stayed here on a business trip. The first thing I like to do when I arrive is pull out all my clothes and iron them. However, the room did not have a standard ironing board. It had some sort of small board you placed on a counter top. I asked for a standard board which they didn't have. I found it annoying. They did spend money on an indoor pool and small water park which no one used.

On top of the great rooms, location, and amenities, the customer service is through the roof amazing. A special "thank you" to Gloria. I had left a bracelet in my room during my stay. It wasn't anything of monetary value, but the sentimental ties meant a lot to me. Gloria went above and beyond to arrange for the bracelet to be located and sent to me. I can't say thank you enough or express how amazing the whole staff is. I would highly recommend this hotel to be at the top of your list to stay at if you're in the Kearney area.
