Room and staff were great and friendly. Complementary breakfast needs some work. Had better breakfast at a motel. Waterpark is small and more for little kids. People bring animals there and dont pick up after their animals. As soon as you step outside there is dog poop all over. Not to mention all the yellow snow right in frontbof the door. Like come people if your not going to pick up after your pets at least walk them to the other side of the parking lot
