Booked a split queen ended up in a split double. Not world ending but 2 teenage girls in a double and 2 adults in another is a lot tighter than what I would like

Well right off the start, they stick you with a unexpected $50 deposit regardless of having prepaid online or not, the room was not clean, my kids found old candy under the couch, pool was cold, hot tub luke warm. Not much for the kids to do in the shallower end, basically only the slides. The room was nice and spacious but the heat/ac had a horrible smell. Breakfast was 6-9am, food was OK, but they started taking it out of the line about 8:45, even while families and kids were still entering to grab something quick.. staff was rude, made you feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. Overall I would not recommend it or try it again. This was the 2nd time being disappointed. Check out the other 2 water parks if you’re looking for a water park. You definitely get what you pay for…

Our family of five styed for one night over MEA wknd. waterpark was a lot of fun!
Rooms could use a bit of updating. Beds were uncomfortable as were the pillows. Loud mattress protectors. We did enjoy our stay ultimately just a few suggestions regarding the rooms/beds.

Check in was horrible. Made me late to a work dinner. Did not show a reservation for me and made me pay again even with the receipt I had prepaid from Hotels.com. After dinner I checked in with a different person who found the reservation on Expedia. Apparently it comes to them that way and the first person was unaware of that. The next day they refunded my money. The worse part is I could not locate a Hotels.com phone number to call when my reservation was missing. The chat bot sucks. I have had this happen in the past and always had a good phone response with Hotels.com customer service. Since the change this company has really gone downhill and I will no longer be booking through this site. The Lodge was fine but I was only there for a brief overnight stay. By the way the rate at the Lodge was $93 versus the $130 I paid on this site. And that was using some of my points. So much for a discount!

Not so good. We were put in a room next to very noisy kids. The front desk was notified but no change by 10:30 pm. Started again at 7:00 am. More awareness at the front desk would be helpful - but we will never return.

Everything was ok. till we went to eat and only the bar was open. Loud, yelling men at the bar made eating and conversing impossible. Then we had a long day and needed to sleep. They put children up on the 4th floor and we were on the 3rd. The noise and stopping back and forth continually in the room above us till midnite. We only got like 5 hrs of sleep and had to be on our way. Breakfast was no good, freezer burn on some frozen little sausage patties, the so called microwave omlets were like paper with peppers in. Bad breakfast. I would never return and the price for such conditions was ridiculous. Sorry for such a rotten review, but it was bad.

Over priced, very dated, and only one waffle maker for ALL the families with kids?! The free breakfast was ‘fine’ if you didn’t mind wandering thru the property to find it and then, once there, investigating all the different restaurant nooks to find the different stations for the pieced together breakfast. The water ‘park’ was a joke! Would have been better with a regular pool.

The bathroom in our room was not cleaned well - the vents which were easily within cleaning reach had sooo much dust and the shower had several old pieces of hair in it. Give me a duster and I would have dusted it myself and it would have taken 30 seconds maximum. The room seemed clean enough but with a lot of missing scrapes of paint on the wall. It was nice the restaurant was on site and the food was good - the continental breakfast very standard and average for a free hotel meal. Water park was okay- pretty chilly actually and the “lifeguards” spent alot of time looking down at their phones
