Overall we had a good stay. I wished they had room service. Also, we did not have enough pillows for everyone in the room. When i called and asked for one more i was told the hotel was out of pillows. We managed, but i found this not customer friendly.

Thanks for having us! We had a good time, however, the slide was under construction, no warning beforehand, which was one of the perks we were most excited about, the hot tub was also not open as well as the terrace deck. I have pictures for proof. The woman at the omelette bar was extremely rude when I asked for potatoes in my omelette, like she was going to make me pay for a side of potatoes. The bowling which was shown as an Ami wry was $20 per person, no signage indicating that prior to playing, even a child was $20, a child and we also purchased drinks and food while bowling and to my surprise, our hour of bowling cost $150. The hotel was clean and staff were great, with the exception of the omelette lady.

The experience overall was good but there were things for the amount of money we paid that I would have expected higher quality. For example our room - half of the door seal on the bottom was gone and you could see light. The rooms were somewhat outdated and the mattresses were horrible. Service was good and overall people were friendly which is the one great thing they have going for them.
