The property is fine, but a little run down. It did feel safe and was clean. The internet and TV leave something to be desired, but we were only there for the night so it wasn't too bad. Also, the breakfast is lacking, but it gets the job done if you are starving.

The room was old but comfortable. Water park was nice for the grandson. Staff were all friendly. I stayed on the first floor by the pool area. Might choose a upper floor next time as the pool is noisy if you wanted to sleep. Staff were good about closing the pool area on schedule which helped.

Mold growing on the floor into the fridge. Smelled terrible. Toilet seat discolored and chipping. We did get our room changed. Second room was a little better but there was mold in the shower. Pool was the best part but had to ask to have it opened both days.

First let me share the good. The pool was awesome, the lazy river and activity area are cold but the main pool was warm. The breakfast was also not bad. Now for the bad, I noticed a lot of really gross stuff on our hotel room walls, the walls in the bathroom were peeling, our tv would glitch when we tried to watch anything, the food from La Cantina made us sick and was obviously warmed up in a microwave. We loved our stay 2 years ago but this time was a major disappointment.
