We loved this hotel. The layout of our room was great for our family. Also liked the layout of the hotel. Pool area was very nice and clean. Only downside was that the hot tub wasn't working properly and the temperature was the same temp as the pool and the slide wasn't open for the kids to use either.

Only arrived late, needed a place to sleep while travelling. Room was clean and we ended up using the pool and hot tub in the morning before we departed. Would recommend but were not at the hotel more than 10 hours.

WiFi was not working entire stay, been told different stories about WiFi, Netflix not working, TV nit working. Shower drain must be partially blocked it takes 10 min for the water to clear, shower head no pressure it is blocked needs to be changed, sink drain blocked water takes forever to clear. Staff front desk terrible service and not friendly at all. Being dishonest with the guest's is not acceptable . I would not recommend, i will not go again. Kids loved the pool but water was very cold
