Definitely need more available parking, especially for families staying 2 or more nights. The wave pool was nice, the lazy river needs more speed. Also while we were getting breakfast before we checked out, the maids came in our room and started to clean threw out pur hotel keys which we fished out of the trash.

Not for toddlers

New water park did not meet expectations. Originally booked room for 2 nights to take two-year-old granddaughter. Unfortunately, there's nothing for a two-year-old to do Due to adults not allowed to take children down slides and her being too short to use any slides on her own. Personally was hoping for a splash pad for toddlers or an area for smaller children, very disappointing for the price we paid.
