Great family experience! Had a great view of the stadium and 4th of July fireworks from the room and toddler had a lot of fun at the indoor water park! Needless to say he slept like a baby afterwards! Including breakfast in the price would make it even better! 😉

Our family came in for a family member funeral. We picked this hotel for the convivence and the water park for the kids , so we thought. I asked the staff at the front desk daily to clean our room as we were leaving for the day. I told them we would be gone all day, I saw them write our room numbers on the clip boards to be cleaned yet when we returned for the day Room221 was NEVER cleaned!!!!! I had to ask the front desk for more clean towels, more trash bags. I asked the front desk the first day we arrived for a hair dryer and NEVER got one brought up to our room. I ALWAYS stay at Holiday Inn's for the cleanliness and friendliness and free breakfast and free parking, which by the way on the website states there is free breakfast which there was not!!! And I had to pay for parking nightly and hope to God there was a spot for me when I returned that evening which the last night there was not but I got charged for parking anyway!! I was so disappointed in this hotel!!!

Premium rooms were great. The sofa-bed mattress was of very poor quality, very springy and uncomfortable. I would certainly appreciate that the hotel offers a memory foam topper if needed. The aquatic center is fun and the temperature of the water perfect. Unfortunately, the swimming pool water was very troubled. I've seen no camera and no control on people who are sliding behind another person causing high risk of injury.

Shower didn’t work, room was crazy loud, staff didn’t answer front desk phone for 10+ minutes (and never did), and when I told them the shower didn’t work when I was checking out they said “oh no, we’ll be sure to make a note of that” without doing anything else. Lobby is nice and so is the area, only reason I didn’t rate 1 star.
