Pool area needs some cleaning. Under the stairs for the slide the wall is floor and wall is really moldy. Not much seating/tables in the pool area. Rooms were mostly clean except the toilet wasn’t cleaned. Elevator was broken.

The only reason we selected this hotel to stay at was because of the kids’ pool and the hot tub. The hot tub was out of order and the swimming pool where the kids could play was so cold. This was so disappointing. We were celebrating our grandson’s first birthday with his siblings and cousins unfortunately they stood around and shivered the whole stay. This was such a disappointing stay. I will definitely inquire as to the availability of the amenities the next time before I stay.

Overall was a pleasant stay. Friendly staff, pool area was crazy but at no fault of the staff, just parents not watching their kids. Room could have been cleaner, just little missed pieces of garbage and crumbs. Over all I would stay again.

The pool area was grossly understaffed. I had a grown man screaming at my 10 year old daughter then tried to start a physical fight with me when i stepped in between them. There is no cameras or staff presence in this area of the hotel. When I spoke to the staff about the situation, I was told she couldn't do anything about the situation and to call the police.
