Overall great hotel
Hotel was great. Staff friendly. Our room was a sauna. For some reason even with the heat off in our room we couldn’t get the temp down. It was like our thermostat didn’t control our room. Other than this, the facilities were clean, breakfast was good and the kids loved the pool and games.

Hot tub used as a pool
Only downside it was so busy the hot tub was packed by unsupervised children clearly underage according to the rules posted. To the point we were unable to appreciate 2 out 3 nights. Adults get 1 hour 10pm-11pm. These same thoughts were shared by another guest that last night we were able to use after 10 children actually went to the pool when we decided we were getting in regardless.

Great hotel - so-so breakfast!
The hotel was great - comfortable bed, and even though there were a lot of families staying there, it was quiet! The only negative was breakfast our second morning - we went down an hour before it closed and there was no sausage and no orange juice. They did bring out more waffles - but they were cold! So that was rather disappointing!
