The room/floor I stayed on was VERY noisy. Had people arguing in the hall way. The last night same thing and someone kept slamming their door against the stopper. Hardly any sleep. The server in the lounge area was not very cordial. Took about 20 mins to get our drinks then on 2nd drink order after waiting found out she hadnt even submitted the order. Will not be staying again.

Family Fun

We had a good time here. I wasn’t sure if my family would stay with me - so I got the king room. Turns out they all wanted to stay. So much fun! The hotel did not mind one bit that there was extra people. Awesome pet friendly spot. Likely the best pet property I’ve stayed at. Actually, everyone, my dog, and I ran into liked him. One thing is, get your pool passes at the front desk rather than the door. I believe I was discharged, but the expense wasn’t bad. I just didn’t know that it wasn’t included. They have a waterpark and part of it comes with the room and the other part is extra. I’m not sure how they monitor that but… overall, a very good experience. It is true that the hotel is dated, but it is comfortable, clean and fun for a family get together.

It was a fun family stay for the kids. The hotel was great, comfortable, no issues there. Friendly, helpful staff. The water park was fun but crazy busy and overcrowded to the point of having to wait a long time for tubes in the river and slides. Overall had a blast and enjoyed our stay!

Liked the water park, the tavern was awesome/had amazing food. Aaltos breakfast food was Mediocre. Room was alright, the grip stickers in the tub were gross/stained looking and need to be replaced. There was no fitted sheets on either of our beds but a flat sheet covering the mattress protector. bathroom counter had a sticky food residue on it. Hotel amenities were decent, overall if I had to pick the same room again on another stay I would pick another hotel to STAY at but go here again for the entertainment, water park and possibly the tavern.

It is very run down. Loud. The chlorine in the hot tub was burning our eyes. Overall not with the money if you don’t want to use the waterpark.
