Lobby was always crowded and noisy. Staff wasn't friendly. Couldn't find a bottle of water in reception at 2pm. Transportation was terrible. Called several times for pickup and took forever. Asked for a toothpaste since we forgot ours and laugh at our face, said wait for next day and go buy one. Will not recommend thia place or stay again. They sid not clean our room nor clean towels for the entire stay.

I took my two kids for a getaway weekend trip before school starts and we had the best time! My building was at a perfect spot. I was close to the pool area and the water park. I loved that everything was walkable. My kids and I really enjoyed the shops and the Waterpark was so fun! The wave pool was great, along with the water slides and lazy river.. overall, it was a great trip and our room was very nice as well. I definitely recommend.

We stayed for a week, and my family and I would definitely choose this place again — just in a slightly bigger room next time! We really enjoyed everything. The location is super convenient and close to all the main attractions. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our 4-year-old had an amazing time, especially in the pools — and the water park was such a great bonus!
