We only stayed one night but it was good. The room was big, it had a kitchen table with fridge and microwave. A couch and a bed. It is dated but fine. The pool was busy and looked fun.

Worst hotel ever 1. Hotel dirty 2. Bed sheet was full of women hairs, i had to make change right away 3. Bathroom door not closing 4. Restaurant call pizzapizza service : found hair in the tea, and the cup was dirty. They had to retun and change the water. Not sure about the girl waitress but our was a man and we have to consistently call, . Waited for the bill and found out that dude was eating in kitchen even though we ask them to comback with that bill l’ 6. Look at all the FAKE rating 7. I paid $280 per room for 2 night 2 rooms mid july, i meant not cheap for this type Advice: renovate or lowery the price. This carpet is dirty also Pool smell Whatever i request in the hotel i got it, so hotel staff is cool though

Anemeties look nice with the water park, hall is very nice. Front staff was good, cleaning staff was dressed to play basketball. Once you enter the hallways it smell moth balls across the hall and in our room. We cancelled and moved out.

This properly is falling apart and not worth $200+ a night especially with 0 quality amenities. Pool falling apart, room floor coming apart, walls stained, carpet stained, there was a wedding that was rattling walls, hand wash as shampoo/ conditioner, beds having pieces of wood to keep mattress from saging. Because the pool is open to all floors whole hotel has a very high humidity making everything damp
