We stayed there for 2 nights over the Easter weekend with our 2 kids. We didn't realize when we booked that it was SEDMHA tournament, and that would be our only complaint about our stay. We often had trouble getting through hallways, stairways and other areas of the hotel because of the impromptu "team meetings" Don't get me wrong...this isn't the fault of the hotel. It would just be nice if groups like this realized when staying at hotels that they aren't the only ones in the place. We don't ask for much, but would like to get down the stairs without having to wait for the meeting to break up.
We loved the room: clean, spacious (bathrooms are huge) and well-appointed. When travelling with children, it's great to have the fridge, microwave, and a little more leg room. Oh, and the beds were fantastic!!
We booked there because of the pool and waterslide and weren't disappointed. The kids had a blast!
The staff were great too. We had to complain once about the smell of smoke in the hallways. Another reason we booked there was that it is completely non-smoking. Although we smoke, we never stay in smoking rooms for the kids' sake. But, despite the fact that one of the parties was in a room only steps from the back door where we went to smoke, they chose to do it in their rooms. I don't know how staff missed this as they were regularly patrolling the halls to rein in the busy hockey players who spent a lot of time playing tag in the halls. But this wasn't a problem. Somehow, they managed to finish their games and quiet down by 11 or so. But after we mentioned the smoking to the lady from the front desk, we never smelled it again.
Front desk staff were also very kind and patient with our kids who loved to go down to the breakfast room from time to time to have hot chocolate. Not too often you'll see staff treat little ones so kindly. Thanks! We'll be back for sure.
