I had a very mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the rooms are spacious and I definitely recommend paying extra for an atrium view room. The facilities, especially the aquatic playscape, are quite fun for families. However, the service could use major improvement, particularly with communication. Also, you should be aware of extra charges for parking and certain amenities, which can add up quickly.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was great for families and there were lots of activities nearby, the room left much to be desired with cleanliness issues and uncomfortable bedding. The staff was friendly, but I encountered some rudeness regarding my reservation. Overall, it's decent for families, but I wouldn't recommend it for a luxurious stay.

I recently stayed at this hotel and, while the location was beautiful and the staff were incredibly friendly, I encountered some issues with the rooms. The comfort level was not ideal due to the heat and stuffiness, and there were some concerning housekeeping moments. On the positive side, the area has lots of water activities for kids. Overall, while there are great aspects to this hotel, I hope they can improve on room management and comfort.
