Great location, very clean and really fun things to do! The parking feels steep, but I understand the cost. They have EV chargers in the garage, but the two attached to the building near the entrance are out of order.

Nice and easy parking which $40 ($20 for ADA). There is an amenities charge of $50 or so, for the games and other nice amenities. If you are traveling with family there is also games in the lobby for enjoyment.
