Paid the extra money to stay at a resort that only to find out the main water park is broken after we arrived and a refund was not possible. Had to pay an additional fee to park my vehicle and was kept up until late due to kids running through the halls banging on doors.

Rooms extremely outdated, and in dire need of renovating. Our bathroom taps were broken and the toilet cistern was constantly running. There’s no aircon in the hallways and the kids bedroom had no aircon either. The food is really expensive and low quality. The train wasn’t running and the experience just wasn’t what was advertised. Our son loved the pool areas and the playground but not worth paying so much to play and swim when we could do that elsewhere. Glad we’ve done it, but wouldn’t return.

The waterpark was great and the recently renovated room nice.That's about where it stops. Everything was so far overpriced it was ridiculous. We've stayed at the Hilton with cheaper (and higher quality f&b) prices. No room charge allowed for anything, which is super frustrating that they don't tell you this on check in. Not too many different dining options. We paid extra for breakfast buffet that should not be called a buffet! You can't even serve yourself like a regular buffet. Very limited options, but many many extras if you're willing to pay exorbitant prices.
