I travel for work and the quality of the bed is a huge component along with the customer service aspect. Check in was lovely. Great front desk service. The room was lovely with two queen size beds. However, in one of the Queen beds, there were food particles. Depending on how management addresses this concern brought to their attention just before I was about to retire will determine my future patronage to this facility.

I didnt like the attitude while checking in.. i had reserved a family room with 6 guests 2 guests under two... i got 4 day passes with the room and had to pay for an extra ticket. But was told under 2 is free. Could make since of the lady checking me in so i paid it and enjoyed out 3 hours of pool... we didnt get anymore time in the pool area because it was closed. During our 3 hours in the pool the staff in the pool area was great. All busy watching kids or cleaning.. this was our experience. Pool area great for kids younger ages.
