Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We were very thankful to stay at this hotel. The pool looked amazing but we arrived too late and had to leave too early to swim. The staff was excellent, above excellent! The rooms were clean. The rooms however were pretty outdated and kind of sketchy on the construction of it. But we were tired and slept well. Also there were no key entries on the building doors, made me feel unsafe as to who could come into the hotel. Appreciate the big room that accommodated 6 of us. Thank you.

The music played in the water park was very loud during the day, but it sounded like the speakers were directly under our room so that would probably be why.
