Not worth it.
Pros:

The location. The hotel was close to anything you needed.

Cons:

The first day I requested the door handle on the outside of one out of two rooms i had to be fixed due to it falling out and needing a new mechanism. The maintenance stated they would get to it that day, and the next but never got fixed over my three night stay. The other room I had the window in the main room that was outside had a screen that was broken and banging against the window glass overnight. The bathroom in this room smelled gross.
The pool was so humid once you stepped outside you room into the hallway/pool area it was hard to breathe. Inside the hallway next to rooms there was a section of carpet that was soaked from the pool.
During our stay other guests had broken a piece of the kiddy pool slide on one of the attractions in this area, my little cousin went down and pinched her fingers inside the piece that had broke. Once I had told the front desk workers they told me to wait till the maintenance person had arrived back from the hotel because he had left. During this time a member of my family and myself grabbed some chairs to block off the stairs to this pool because little kids, 5 and under were still trying to go down this broken slide. No worker of the hotel came to put caution tape or a sign or anything till maintenance showed up about a half hour later.
We had an incident where the fire alarm was pulled and the employees did nothing to ensure that individuals were getting out of the pool but the hotel itself. They had no idea why the fire alarm was going of in the first place.

Cons:

I call the property July 10 to cancel my stay. Booking also called them to cancel and was waiting for a whole week to get a confirmation of cancellation but they never did every time I called the front desk lady named Emma was really rude I’ve made complaints and been trying to talk to the manager but every time I asked she ask why I wouldn’t recommend staying here anymore
