Deliver what you promise.
I chose this hotel because of the Spa, which wasn't available... of course.

Disappointed
Disappointing that the pool was not open during our stay. Disappointing that the gym wipes were out, that the light by the bed flickered on and off like a loose wire and disappointing that the room was not squeaky clean- a leftover toothpick and stray hairs.

Great Price for what we needed
We stayed Sun-Tues while our house was having some work done, and it was great for what we needed. Room was large and had a small kitchen area. Price was super cheap, and I'm assuming that was due to the waterpark are being closed on those days. But we were fine with that as we wouldn't use that anyway.

The room was spacious and clean. The pool area had a variety of water slides and a lazy river. It was a great place for kids. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider staying there again.
