It was a middle of line experience - a little pricey the state of cleanliness we had.
Pros:

Everything was as expected - the staff were friendly and our room was decently clean. The breakfast was very good, my toddler was able to enjoy most of the items! The pool was a little dirty and our room could have been cleaner in some areas (the jet tub and bathroom in general).

Cons:

Some areas could have been a little cleaner. The jets on our tub were dirty. Our bedsheets had some discoloration and odd stains so I ended up not using the ones provided and we placed a personal blanket down to lay on and bought our own from Walmart to use to cover up with.

Pros:

I love that the pool was heated although it was a little too warm I don't want to complain about that

Cons:

I didn't like that you advertise a pancake machine and scrambled eggs and bacon for breakfast and none of those were available on Sunday morning which is crazy there were egg omelets and sausage turkey sausage and I don't want any of that

Pros:

The room and beds were clean and comfortable! The pool and hot tub was also clean and well kept. The breakfast in the morning was yummy with lots of healthy options to choose from.

Cons:

My only complaint was using the business printer. I needed to print a couple things for work the next day. The internet was weak and the directions for the password was wrong.
