Location was ok, great view of the river. They did not have a pool for adults to use. The water park was not set up for older kids, more for toddlers not teenagers. They did not have chairs in the rooms, you had to sit on the bed. Our door was very hard to open and the hair dryer in our bathroom was unsafe. They never fixed the ice machine on our floor even after they were told. Not sure I would stay there agine?

At check-in the staff was not hospitable at all. They were very mechanical and failed to provide the waterpark access bands. The rep also charged my card twice for the $50 incidentals deposit. The breakfast area needs more seating for larger families.

Overpriced disaster
When my daughter and I checked in, there was a woman changing behind the registration desk. Not a great first impression, but we were already out $267 so we pressed on. As we got to our floor, it smelled musty. Once we got to our room, we realized that it had most likely lost its glory over a decade ago. It smelled, furniture was old, the sheets were re-stitched with blue thread, no comforter and just gross. The television only had around 20 channels to choose from with no pay-per-view. The ice machine didn’t work. I could go on, but the worst part was the “waterpark”. Parts of the tree were being held together with duct tape. There was no private changing room. The lazy river was more of a push your feet off the walls to move with the water type of river. All in all, complete disappointment. The complimentary breakfast made both my daughter and myself sick. Don’t waste your money!

Nice view at first, but a buncha garbage against building in back. Ants coming up from tiles in bathroom. Mold and black mildew on bar on shower enclosure. Waterpark rusty bucket on ground for kids to catch tetanus. Not safe.
