Good waterpark, subpar hotel

Water park was very nice and well maintained with friendly lifeguards. The hotel itself needed more comfortable furniture/beds, more lighting (we were in the largest family suite with 5 kids), and could have been better cleaned. For the price with the waterpark it was definitely worth it though.

There was a few light bulbs that didn’t work, bed frame was to the floor!!! Hot tub was a nice plus. Bathroom was spacious and it was nice that you could crack the windows for fresh air. Overall a good stay.

This was a pretty bad experience. First, yes, the hotel has been redone... but the rooms are so dimly lit and cold feeling that it's really off putting. Also, the 2nd room in the family suite has no heat so it's like an icebox. When we went to pull out the couch bed - it was completely covered in food. The bedding was so old and ratty that there were holes in the sheets. The waterpark was ok, really in need of an upgrade. Almost none of the water features in the little kid area were working and so if you're going with a child under 8, DON'T. There is one slide they can go on. Also, there aren't enough tubes so it's a mad race to get one and you better hang onto it. The pool "locker rooms" are not locker rooms... they are pretty much bathrooms with a few showers...nowhere to change or set clothes or anything. Lastly, bring a towel, because they will be out.
