My only suggestions ate to have a few designated places that smokers can sit at so they are not in the way of other guests, and to have some handicapped accessible parking by all entrances to the hotel

The lazy river/play area of the pool had extremely cold water. It was so fun but hard to enjoy due to the water temp. Other than that everything was good considering the price.

The rooms need updating badly. Increase your room prices and waterpark wristband prices, and put that extra revenue towards remodeling. Our kids still loved the waterpark. The water was freezinggg cold in the lazy river/park area, but that didn’t stop the kids from having a blast. Hot tub and regular pool were perfect temps. Staff was all very friendly.

What a rip off. This place is absolutely gross. It's a place I wouldn't take a $3 hooker to. Save your hard earned money and pass. Pubic hair in the tub, mattress that is like a brick, they are praying on busy weekends to float and rip you off. Don't do it! I've stayed in plenty of holes but this one is nasty.
