Pros: Clean, beautiful grounds. There are pools throughout the property, and food/store options available onsite. Beds were comfortable. Nice patios. Able to get bus to Universal for free. Cons: Check in was awful. Took close to 1 hour. There is a shuttle that can take you from your building to the front as it's a long walk. However, we mostly had to walk because the shuttle was either parked up front or MIA. The property and rooms are dated. Plugs/outlets in the room were few and we had two just not even work in our room. The waterpark was fine, but requires additional paid entry for non-members. Pools on property are just open swimming..no attendants.

Best deal for a family vacation. There are medium size pools by every building. Water park is on the property (Clean and not crowded). Lots of sidewalks (we traveled with the baby) convenient with the stroller. Arcade, several restaurants, coffee shop and convenience store. Plenty of parking at no charge. Friendly staff. Nicolas Deprimo, front desk manager, went above and beyond to help us resolve the issue with double booking. I really appreciate it! Definitely coming back.
