Drip drip...
This was during a rain/windstorm. Room had a balcony, the balcony door leaked. it was very loud wind noise and with the dripping it didn't provide a restful sleep. Pool was nice. My kid liked the waterslides...

We booked a night, to enjoy the waterslides and pool with our kids. There room was exactly as advertised, and so was the pool amd slides. The only thing they didnt offer was room service, and that wasnt a deal breaker for us.

Less than positive
Bathroom is so tiny you can barely change into clothes, no hooks on door or wall to hang up clothes when you come out of shower. Told housekeeping not to clean room but we needed clean face clothes, she did not bring us any. Had to phone the front desk from the pool area to get some towels, the worker showed up with 6 towels and they were all taken when he came in because the pool was really busy. Had to call again for more towels, he came back with a small arm load, and I managed to get 3 towels for the 4 of us. Balcony had garbage on it. Free water in Lobby was always empty so we couldn’t fill our cups. Fridge in room was turned up high but was barely cold enough to keep our drinks cool. Hotel is outdated and is in need of renovations
