The let out couch had food, a spoon and a can in it. The beds in the bedroom and the pull out couch were all dented in pretty bad. You have to pay between $5 to even accompany your children to the pool or pay $20 to swim. I have 4 children and my husband I don’t feel like for us to pay all that money to stay there and everyone in the room doesn’t automatically gets access to the pool is a rip off. I shouldn’t have to pay to chaperone my kids. The only thing that saved this place is the huge water park that is well staffed and the waitress Olivia in the restaurant was so kind and made our very long and stressful day pleasant. The food in the restaurant is excellent as well the chef brought it out for us personally.

Coordination between Booking.com and hotel is terrible, the waterpark was closed the first day of my visit and nobody contacted me and the hotel refused any sort of discount. This is unacceptable and I will never book with Booking.com or stay at that hotel, i feel like i was scammed.

The only thing that we didn’t like was that the jets in the hot tub didn’t work. Rather disappointing when you pay extra to have a special relaxing treat after a long day.
The room and refrigerator we had are bigger than most other places. The bed was nice and comfy. It was also great to see how clean everything was.

When I made my reservation, I was unaware at the time that the Lazy River and the water park was unavailable. I was also under the impression that there was a continental breakfast, which there was not. That was very disappointing to myself, my husband, and my two family members.
It was very nice having the restaurant on site. The food was really good. The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. The staff was very professional and accommodating.

Horrible service, I was overcharged for breakfast that was supposed to be included in the room price. When I brought it to hotel management they sent out my server to address the issue and her response was to take off half of the 11 dollar coffee fee (really who charges for coffee on a comp. breakfast at all)

“Ok but disappointed the waterpark was not open.”

I booked this specific hotel with their waterpark as a Christmas gift for two of our grandchildren. I was NOT aware that the waterpark is only open on weekends and days when there is no school. There was no notification at booking and nothing again stated on the confirmation email. The children were of course, very disappointed. We made the best of it but not the memories I hoped to create for them this Christmas.

Smokers right outside the front entrance filled the entry and lobby. Former smoker here. Grove them a place to smoke in the back of the building or out on TJ parking lot away from the entrance- first impressions have only one chance. They nickel dime you on simple things. Free coffee in lobby but you can’t carry it into the pool area/ they don’t tell you they will give it to you for free when you get inside. Buy family pass for breakfast! Yes it’s a great price in they’re restaurant. Oh, but you creed to pay for your coffee extra! Our air conditioner didn’t work, you don’t really get it till 2:00 in the AM when it’s 78 degrees and you hv two kids in the room you don’t want to disturb. They fixed it quickly in the morning. We asked if they had local pizza info - they told us yes and gave us brochures- they also said that we can purchase pizzas in the watrpark as well. They didn’t tell us we couldn’t bring our pizza into the park to eat it or any drinks for that matter including the Hiliday Inn coffee. The room phone didn’t work ever. Weird isn’t it? Overall it was a really nice place, great water park, but these little things were irritating and we felt we didn’t get the Holiday Inn experience- hospitality that we have expect across the country. Most of these things are little but weird.
Waterpark!
