The hotel is clean and the staff are helpful and friendly. Concern: The shower and bathroom floor are slippery as ice! It's scary to think of falling. The floor and shower seem to have a buildup of soap that is very slick.

So clean and smelled great. King room wascery nice. It was really cool that our room included 1 breakfast ans the water park. However, the staff at the water park were so rude and completely unnacceptable. We didnt end up being able to use it due to a storm and were rushed out of the door upon arriving.
