Disappointed
We booked this hotel as it was connected to the water park and we stayed over Christmas , Room was a bit dirty mostly in the kitchen area .My wife cleaned everything with Clorox wipes prior to using kitchen . Beds were okay . We had a room on the first floor and was a little noisy . When you turned the bathroom fan on it smelled like weed , so that’s fun with kids …Probably won’t stay here again .

Family vacation success!
Family vacation…..3 - 2 bdrm suites. So comfortable & spacious. Had all the extras needed in the kitchenette. Loved that the water park was free to all hotel guests as of 1/1/2025! All staff was very accommodating. We had to leave a day early bc weather. No charges.

Very nice hotel and great location
Everything was great until we went to take showers. The shower had no door and drained very slowly - not exactly the type of shower you would expect on a family vacation. Other than that, our stay was very nice and comfortable.

Hotel under renovation
Hotel is under renovation. Our room’s bathroom shower had broken fixtures on top of it being a handicap room. Shower was mildewed pretty bad and leaked unless you closed off the tap with all your strength. I called the front desk and was offered a different room but not a suite or only queen beds. I would pick a newer property if possible until they get this one fixed

It was a good set with the small kitchenette. We liked how the tv moved so you could watch it from the couch or the bed. I have never been to a hotel with more than 3 floors and have only 1 elevator!!

We had a one bedroom suite. Everything was very nice. About the 3rd day, we started seeing small flies and wasps around our inside window. They came up each time we called and killed them. They also gave us a bug zapper. We assumed they were coming in from the A/C vent. Other than that, it was a nice stay.
