Lower Bunk bed kept falling apart, the base slats did not stay and fell off so the bed would sink to the floor. King bed was literally like sleeping on a piece of plywood. Room layout was nice, rest of the stay was comfortable

Property was conveniently located where we needed to be. Staff was very uninformative when we checked in. Since the water park was closed, no one said anything about the continental breakfast being free on Saturday and Sundays. We just happened to ask and that's how we found out. No discount given since the water park was closed. Or most likely we weren't told of any other discounts that word given. Beds were very uncomfortable, sofa chair in the room was hard as a rock and the office chair laid back to where you thought you were going to fall backwards. Overall it was fine since we only stayed one night but probably would not book again.

Pool is for locals and only open on weekends. Our room had little to no hot water for a week. No room cleaning, no clean towels. Dozens of biting beetles in our room. Only service available with calls to front desk. Breakfast available only part time. Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Never again.
