No complimentary breakfast as promised.

Made reservation over a month ago and was told there was a complimentary hot / cold breakfast during the week and charge on weekends. I confirmed the week prior that breakfast was include with our stay Thursday night. Went to breakfast are Friday and discovered $13per adult and $6 for children. Our group of 10 guests were very unhappy and went to McDonald's instead.

The room was clean and bigger than expected ( big plus) but they were knocking on our door at 9:15 am to see about checkout. I responded to their text and let them know we were not leaving til the checkout time given, 11am and they again proceeded to come knock on our door a little after 10 am. I wasn't happy feeling like I had to rush to leave. The price was $9 higher than we were told, wasn't bad but still more than our Expedia confirmation which said it included tax. Front desk staff were friendly. All in all it wasn't a bad experience except for feeling very rushed to leave the following morning. That was very disappointing. Liked they offered a breakfast buffet ( not included but reasonably priced)

Mostly clean room. Some mold issues in our room bathroom, stained rug. The mattress was very old and you had to fight your way to stay out of the center.Lots of peeling paint in the waterpark. The arcade had a broken window and the wall trim was ripped up in a strange way. Upkeep very disappointing. Aside from the upkeep issues, the water park is enjoyable, just don't try to bring in your water bottle or the teenager manning the entrance will let you have it.

This is a nice hotel sized waterpark. The only challenge we had was determining when the waterpark was open. There were schedules listed in 3 different places on the website. They all conflicted. I got the "real" schedule from the front desk.
