There were no staff, you have to go to a different hotel to check in. Cable didn't work, internet didn't work. Room was dirty, smashed bugs on the walls, Toilet had black mold behind the entire tank, growing down. We were so scared of the mold, that we left early. Water park was run down and not running, no spa, no breakfast, no fitness room. They lied about everything and put our families health in jeopardy

We stayed at this hotel because we had done so years before and the kids really enjoyed the pool. The hotel itself was ok (beds were a little hard for my liking but I know some like stiffer beds). The only thing I wasn’t a huge fan of was that there was no one managing the property - you had to go to the hotel next door to check in and out. I don’t have a problem with the hotel overall

They have no free breakfast the so called water park is not a water park it’s a splash pad that was not working. The room was hot and spiders in the bathtub the toilet was not bolted to the floor. The rooms walls where peeling there was no microwave in the room the ice machine did not have any ice I would not recommend this hotel to anyone and we will not be going back there the staff had no clue what to do Check in took forever also!
