The hotel is a little outdated but still clean and comfortable. Every staff member we encountered was amazing! Friendly, helpful and very accommodating. The arcade needs some work with half the games out but the pool and all its features were awesome and they had a cool kids zone full of activities. Overall it was a great stay and we would definitely go again!

Loved our visit, pool floor has been resurfaced and feels nicer. Lifeguards are well staffed and actually use their wissles. Breakfast seating is always an issue but delicious, we ate in our room. Some stains/ wall wiping could be done but overall bug and debris free room. We will be back some day, keep up the good work!

Waterpark was the perfect for our 5 year old son. Plenty for him to be entertained with and small enough for us to keep an eye on him. Also the staff was great to work with.
