Cons:

We checked in and once we got to our room we found extremely large roaches. We immediately grabbed our belongings and went back to the front desk. The employee changed our room to a smaller room that could not accommodate our family and had mold all over its HVAC unit. We then decided it was best to checkout.

Pros:

We loved the pool area and arcade for the kids

Cons:

I was told at that they do not having a cleaning crew in the summer it was a skeleton crew and if we needed more towels that they could send it to the room or sheets but that's it, l think that is crazy because when you have kids you go through towels and trash needs to be changed and cleaned some.The buffet was okay but they need more room for people to eat and more drinks for kids they just had orange juice and coffee and it was so hott in one of the eating rooms for breakfast. Staff was nice but they need more staff to clean around the place.

We enjoyed our stay and liked the pool area and location
Pros:

The breakfast was ok, was hoping for a little more variety such as cereal or oatmeal.

Cons:

Could have been more actual games in the arcade for kids instead of so many claw machines

This was a horrible experience.
Pros:

The pool

Cons:

First of all the room I rented was a king and I got a queen. The air conditioner in the room leaked and half the floor (carpet) was soaked and the front desk did not care. When we told the attendant he just said “oh man”. Also I was told on the phone that the pool tables worked and when we got there they were out of order. Waste of money.
