The locations great. Its right in the northstar village, and everything is walking distance. The recreation center, while not fully open, had 1 hot tub open and the lap pool which was a nice way to end the day.
The room, however, really needs an update. We were happy to find a pet friendly room, but there were so many carpet stains that it made the place feel unclean and outdated. The shower head was clogged so only half of the water flowed, and the sink had a constant drip. I think the difference between just okay, to poor rating was the incredibly uncomfortable old school spring mattresses. They were in bad shape. I am a very small adult, but the bed totally sank, leaving me with the worst back ache. Second day and on, I slept on the stained carpeted floor. The photos show modern, fresh linens..but it was not. It was old, outdated linens that were scratchy and felt cheap, not to mention an overly perfumed detergent that was used. I felt like little things could have elevated the room like perhaps quality linens, towels (amazon basic towels that were scratchy), better pillows that pillows that felt like they were a decade old and flopped and were useless.
