    The floor in front of the door and bathroom floor had some mud spots that needed mopped up. Shower could have been cleaned better. Some light dirt on shower walls and in the corners of the shower floor

    The heater in the room did not work. Since it was 20 degrees outside, it got a bit chilly. I did not call the front desk. They probably would have moved me and I didn’t want to repack. My choice.

    There wasn’t any breakfast at the hotel. Very disappointed with the water park. We took our grandkids who are 4 and 11. The pool was too deep for both of them. The 4 year old wasn’t tall enough for the slides, so there really wasn’t much for her to do. There wasn’t anything for us to do the next morning.

    The arcade was fun. The food was good.

    We received an unexpected alarm clock around 7am to the sound of impact drills and heavy hammering. This was due to the construction on the indoor water park, we understood the cause but we’re surprised at the lack of consideration for sleeping kids… this was the only negative moment of our trip but it is worth mentioning!

    The arcade, go karts, and outdoor water were certainly the highlights.. it was overall a fantastic experience!

    In my room, the water wasn't draining from the shower, called the service desk, and Ryan (probably spelling it wrong) was nice from beginning to end. The maintenance guy was just a jerk about it. Called and asked when will he be able to make it to the room his response was "when I get done doing what I'm doing" in the most snottiest way.

    I love taking my kids here. They had an amazing time. We went to the water park, Boogaloo Cafe, and the game room. Overall a good time

    The website makes It seem like it is for families with children but almost all the activities were geared toward teens and adults. The activities for younger visitors were limited or unavailable but we were only notified after we booked a non refundable stay. The website did not disclose this. If it did it was not easily decernable. There was no advantage to staying when all the activities required additional fees with no difference in cost for guests vs day trippers. Basically just a hotel near a water park and a bar. The staff at the arcade service desk were not friendly. One was very rude and snapped at me for not standing in the right place at the counter when requesting to put money on an arcade card. No other customers were present and at a circular desk one would assume you would approach where the worker was present not the other side of the desk. The breakfast options were very limited and not very good. Only one real option for younger visitors. We had fun but it did not live up to the advertisements or expectations.

    The hotel desk staff were super friendly and helpful. They made the difference in our experience. Our room was clean and comfortable. The two servers we had at the sports bar were great. Efficient and friendly.

    The only trash cans were in the bathroom. The bathroom doors were sliding doors, with a gap in between so you could still see out and weren't very private.

    The staff were very accommodating. The room was very comfy and clean! Most of the staff were very friendly!!

    The arcade games don’t give out enough tickets for the “price” of the prizes at the end of the day. Example, my kids played all day for 2 days, each using about $140 (each) in play cards, and total they ended up with not even 3,000 tickets. The amount of tickets they had got them a bunch of candy, when all they wanted was a Mario plush stuffed doll. That is literally the only thing I have to complain about.

    The property was clean, the staff were all super nice and helpful, and there were a lot of things to keep the kids busy!!

    PUT A CHAIR IN FRONT OF YOUR DOOR!! The housekeeper doesn't knock and there is no chain or third lock on the door to keep them out. Housekeeping just walked right in at 9:00 AM on my wife and I and check out wasn't until 11:00 AM. So many privacy laws just violated and needless to say we were not decent and won't be staying here again. My wife was very embarrassed and is still trying to get over this.

    Not much to like
