Kind staff, very clean, great location, exceptional indoor pool.
Pros:

The pool was terrific - our son loved the water slide and went on it at least 15 times. Cafe staff were great. Location is great if you’re flying in or out - easy access to airport.

Cons:

The foldout bed was perhaps the worst bed we’ve ever slept on - it was 99% springs. The main bed was very comfortable.
