We love coming here with the kids for the pool area and slides. It’s clean with comfortable beds. My only complaint is the hairdryers need updating.

Awesome place to stay, especially with kids! The water park is amazing!!!! In our room, the bathroom was a little tight, but the room was enough space. They were accommodating to our requests, but they kind of made you feel like a nuisance for asking for something. The restaurant was delicious!!!
