The place was great! It seemed like they were at full occupancy so they were definitely busy. But that didnt stop us from being able to enjoy everything there. We ate dinner at Tony Roma's and were seated with no wait or reservation. We also ate breakfast at the complimentary breakfast with no wait and all of the options were available and fully stocked. The arcade was fun and the prize system was unique to me. The waterpark was nice for our little one. Even though they were busy, we still had our own table and chairs to put our bags while we swam.

You can tell the hotel has seen better days! Our sink drain and shower drain did not drain well. The water park definitely needs some updates. The staff and cleanliness was great though. We saw online that there are plans to remodel, we will visit again!!
