Great pool and hot tub and excellent service. The room was small, dirty, particularly the carpeting, the bathrooms were old and well used (but clean), the TV was old and small and had lines going through it. Breakfast was awesome and the maintenance guy was wonderful!

Very quiet and cute place. The dinosaur theme definitely makes it worth staying once, and I read they even have a small class to teach about dinosaurs (or something). Complimentary breakfast is good and has enough options to satisfy most people (assuming you're not picky!). They also have an outdoor pool, but we visited during a winterstorm so not quite the best time for us to try. Rooms were super clean, and we actually liked that housekeeping didn't come by often. Only thing keeping me from giving the rooms a five stars is the bathroom wasn't working correctly, but we attributed that to the winter storm. Additionally, the location isn't too bad either as you're in walking distance of a few local places and a Red Robin. Overall, I'd stay here again if I had the chance!
