Figured out the WiFi password on my own and had to find the ice machine on my own as well. No bags left in the ice area. The room was clean and the parking was easily accessible to the room. The main lobby was not really useful as the had a pool table and air hockey table pushed next to each other in the corner and not useful. Looks pretty at night with the lights around the property."
