To expensive for the conditions
The lighting in the room was very dim. The tub was clogged and the bathroom very small. There wasn't any extra toilet paper. The room looked dated.

Double charged for parking. When I only stayed one night. Wasn't even on the property for 24 hrs. Called to get refund. They just gave me a case number. There isn't much there for the big kids. A couple slides that's it. Everything is extra money. Not worth the cost for staying there. There wasn't even a Jacuzzi for the adults in the waterpark

Staff had less than adequate customer service. We requested an iron twice and never got it. A family member who lived near came and brought us one.
