For the money I would not stay again. The bed and floors were hard as a rock. The girl at the water park counter was very rude. No place to have breakfast.

Unfortunately our suite was dirty - stained linens and chairs, bugs on the windows and in the bathroom. The dishwasher was not connected to the cabinets and did not work at all. Hotel management was notified and were pleasant to deal with and did give a little refund for this. We will not stay there again.
