Polar express parking
Stayed an extra night after polar express train ride, the lady at the front office was extremely helpful and nice made my switch over from one reservation to another super easy, if more employees were like her this place would crush it. Rooms are OK, ours was really clean but just a little dated, only downfall to this place and it was a huge one for us, was finding parking place was literally jammed packed i know it was due to the polar express event but they really need to do something about that cuz it was super ridiculous

The room was fine. We didn’t get to check out the hotel as we only stayed one night. It was convenient for the Polar Express. The line to check in was long, eventhough we had checked in online prior to arriving. There was no designated line to pick up keys- so checking in online didn't save us any time. Staff weren't rude but I didn't feel particularly welcome. It was expensive with no wow factor. The convenience to restaurants and shopping were great. Coffee and water in the lobby were a nice touch. I would stay again but will look for better prices in the area.

Very slow at check in counter. I think one of the employees was new and needed a lot of assistance. I also was dissappointed that the hot chocolate on the polar express was cold. Thats a lot of money to spend for a family of 4 to get cold hot chocolate. Almost everyone sitting around us either committed on it or i could tell from the expression on their face.

The link I was sent opened in Safari. A little box on the left of the screen was not visible and I did not know it had to be checked to complete the first page of check in. Coped the link and opened in Chrome and saw what the problem was and able to fix it in Safari. Large crowd at the front desk. With plenty of staff on hand it only took a few minutes to get me key cards! Great staff and they answered all my questions! Polar Express train is running so lots of guests on the property. Great place for Christmas!
