We had a fun time at the hotel mainly because of the awesome water park that kept the kids entertained. While the check-in process was a bit chaotic, the rooms were spacious and well-kept. The dining options were decent, but we had a few hiccups with service during busy times, particularly at the pizza place. Overall, a great place for families with some room for improvement on service during peak hours.

Our stay at the hotel was quite the experience. The on-site water park was a highlight, especially for the kids, and we made wonderful family memories. However, there were some hiccups with room cleanliness and the check-in process that put a damper on things. Dining options were decent but could have offered more variety, and the overall service could use a bit of improvement. Despite these issues, we appreciated the friendly staff and spacious accommodations.
