This was a great hotel. It was very quiet...they stress that, but being next to an amusement park, I'm sure there are a lot of families, etc. The room was great; clean and the heater/ac worked well.

Attention to detail packs a bit. Light bulbs out, half the bed lights didn’t come on, paint on the walls didn’t match or wasnt properly blended. Overall stay was ok.

Dated design but well kept. Budget friendly.
Unfortunately the room we had was extremely humid. All of our bed linens felt so damp they were uncomfortable to lay in.
The breakfast had great options, it was small and crowded on a Monday morning. And the server had a hard time keeping up on stocking it.
Our room was nice with a hideaway bed.

We went for a family trip to Adventureland, I would stay there again if going back to Adventureland it was super convenient, the breakfast was good. The room was small not much room to walk past the tv stand and it was hot in the room although the ac was turned to 61. Kids loved the pool. Overall not horrible not the best but for the convenience of being able to walk right next door and not pay extra for parking at Adventureland it was worth it.

Multi family trip to Adventureland
Large family group stayed overnight for 2 days at Adventureland. Very convenient to the park. The staff was very accommodating to our large group. Nothing fancy but had everything we needed.
