Needs better amenities
Considering what we paid for rooms here, I was left feeling as if we should have booked elsewhere for the amount we paid. The wifi did not work for the entire time that we were there; it worked for about an hour when we first arrived and after that, no more. Also, there is NO FREEZER space in the fridge in your rooms. We spent $12 on ice cream (Ben n Jerry's) only to get back to the room and discover there was nowhere to put it. The entire "fridge" is just that, no freezer section (and barely cooled drinks either). There is no jacuzzi or hot tub sadly, and there was no bathtub in our room either. Nice water park for the kids but nothing for the adults. We were given a handicapped accessible room due to a youth conference filling the place up that weekend and was unable to take a regular "bath" as it was shower only. I will not be staying at this location again, due to the lack of proper amenities. Hotel was very clean though.
