"Staff was friendly, fair price for a large clean room. Would be good for family. Pool was sketchy. I don’t like that they charge $100 deposit instead of a hold that can get immediately released. Not good restaurant selection."

As fun as it looks
"We loved staying in the Comic House! It felt like we were guests in our own private amusement park with the Marvel theme so artfully expressed. This house had all the comforts and conveniences of home plus we got to sleep in Wakanda, use Thor’s toilet paper and search for a Lego-sized Antman!"
