⭐☆☆☆☆ Longtime Guest Extremely Disappointed I have been coming to this hotel for over 10 years. It used to be a place we looked forward to every single year—clean, family-friendly, and well-managed. Unfortunately, the last two years have been a complete disappointment, and this most recent visit will be our last unless major changes are made. To begin with, the Wi-Fi did not work at all during our stay, which made it difficult to manage even basic things. We also had a serious leak in our room that left our entire floor soaking wet for all four days—completely unacceptable. On top of that, the slides, once a highlight of the property, were so damaged they were cutting kids’ feet. Several families had similar complaints. That’s a major safety hazard that should have already been addressed. Worse, one of the staff members falsely accused our girls of misbehavior in the pool area. Not only was it untrue, but the situation was handled in a very unprofessional and accusatory manner. The overall cleanliness of the hotel has gone drastically downhill, and it seems like standards across the board have dropped. I regret not reading the recent reviews ahead of time—it’s clear this property has gone from a 5-star destination to barely hanging on to 2 stars. I’m not someone who writes negative reviews often, but after this experience, I felt it was necessary. Until management steps up and tur

Came in to get registered and the smell of chlori e could knock you over it was so strong. We get to the room and it was not as the pictures showed! Mildew smell and roaches crawling on the walls and in the shower. Had to stick it out cause it was non refundable. Will not be staying again.

The night staff was extremely difficult, we traveled with family and had 3 rooms booked. We requested to be next to each other and were told the hotel is completely booked and they could not accommodate our request. Ended up with 1 family on 2nd story, 2nd family on the 3rd floor and the rest of us on the completely otherside of the property. The AC did not work in our room and asked to be moved, the front desk made smart remarks to me about checking if the unit was even plugged in, I told her I think the unit has a short and maintenance should take a look at the unit, she said, well did you look at it? She eneded up moving us to another room a few doors down. The next morning, we decided to leave early, we walked up to the 3rd floor where our family was at and noticed more then half the rooms were not being used. It was obvious because the curtains were open and beds were made in atleast 8 rooms on that floor. I understand that hotel is a little out dated and we expected that. But we didn't expect the poor service which make us not want to stay at the hotel again and would NOT recommend due to poor customer service/hospitality.

This hotel at one time was probably amazing! But it is so run down and unkept now. The pool room was dirt (as was the rest of the hotel) I mean minimal cleaning. The pool had cigarettes in the bottom of it. Needs maintenance work on top of the cleaning part. There’s so many other options I would never recommend this one!

Very disappointed family

Booked this room as a last minute one night stay. The first room we got was terrible. The room had an awful smell and stained comforter on the bed. Changed to another room with the same bad smell and flies in the sink. Changed one last time and the same awful smell was there. As we drove past the outdoor pool, it was green with ducks in it. They would not give us even a partial refund. They told us there was one more room to try. We left and stayed somewhere else. Very disappointed with this hotel. We took a pic of the outside with broken window covered with what looks like a mattress.
