Loved the stay, would stay again with a little TLC.
Pros:

I loved the location, felt like we were pretty much staying ON property at Moody Gardens. They had not only a pool but putt putt golf which was great for just hanging out at the room!

Cons:

The rooms were VERY spacious but they seem as if need some extra repairs. For example, the 2nd lock at the top of the door was falling off of the wall - very unstable. Same for the toilet paper holder. The front door threshold was broken and a little unsafe for my child.
