Plenty of parking, there is a fee. Check-in was at 4:00, but I was able to get in at 2:30. Everyone was so nice and friendly.

The room was spacious and clean. We were not close to the amenities; pool, hot tub, etc as we were in the north building which was away from the action. Actually quite nice for us as we are seniors. Felt like we had the whole building to ourselves as it was so quiet.
