I would never set foot in this place again. Waste of money from the hotel stay. The park and the over 5 hours in driving and wasted gas.

You get what you pay for

My room wasn’t ready when I got there, they did give me a new room, from the lobby to the hotel room smelled like smoke and mold, room was dirty, bathroom was disgusting, service at front lobby was rude, beds were uncomfortable and sheets were nasty, looked like fresh stains and hair all over the pillow cases, waterpark water was cold, I can see why this hotel is rated a two star. Not too mention they did not salt the parking lot. I have an infant and almost fell a few times. Inconvenience to be on the fourth floor and no elevator

We have stayed here a few times over the past 3 to 4 years as our kids love the waterpark feature. It has went downhill overall. Staff seemed irratated and short with everyone at check in. The toilets in the room were gross, bedding didn't seem like they were fresh. They had stains and grit in the sheets. The water park while it was never 5 star has definitely went downhill and was hobbled together. The pools looked dirty and had food floating in them. The floors themselves in the pool area was disgusting. The first day I thought gross, but they will probably clean it tonight. Nope, the same food was stuck in the same spot the next day. The bathrooms were not cleaned in the water area as well and thank God my kids had water shoes. All 3 of my kids ended up sick and we left check out early.

The facility was dirty and old. Our room was cold due to an open window in the winter. Beds weren’t made, floor wasn’t swept, and table not cleaned off. They upgraded us a room, and while it was much better, there was no working ice machine.

Loved this place the first time we stayed second time , someone forgot to shut off the reservation availability, so when I got there I had to stay at the other hotel , and it doesn’t tell you online they are only open fridays and saturdays. So sadly I made the trip and spent the money to only be able to swim at the pool across the street.
