Review Score:   8
Summary: Room was clean and beds are fairly comfortable. Location was good as it is only 40 minutes into the park. We only stayed 1 night so was not able to enjoy the pool or eat at the restaurant. The main complaint is the shower turns cold and hot and cannot maintain the temperature while showering. The bed linens look like they got scratched by a cat and needs to be replaced, the AC is too cold when turned on, but will be too hot if turned down. Otherwise it is a comfortable place to rest your head after days of hiking
