Will not stay here again.
Pros:

There was an unexpected free hot breakfast.

Cons:

The family room we booked for 6 of us had a broken a/c . But because our room window faced an indoor hallway the window was sealed shut. We had no choice but to have the fan of the a/c run which was very loud and made sleeping difficult. The unit also leaked water so the carpet was wet and without a bathroom fan, the humidity in the room was out of control. The play station that was in the kids room was not working. When we brought our concerns to the front desk, they said they would put a ticket in for us to get money back. It's been a month and we can received nothing. So we paid $250 plus extra fees for the water park for a very bad experience.

It was good if you haven’t been before
Pros:

The room was spacious (we got upgraded to a suite)

Cons:

That you need a bracelet to do the big slide and that the walk from the rooms is far from swimming. We had to walk around reception in bathing suits.
