Great except for the remote
"Great location. Has a strong chlorine smell, but there IS a waterpark. Just know in advance. The only issue was the main TV by the bed did not having a working remote control and instead was stuck on a Catholic mass."

"The room was great for a family of five - I appreciate hard floors (not carpet) as it feels so much cleaner. Breakfast was not the best - they were not keeping up with the crowd and there were insufficient dishes etc. But overall a nice place and I would stay again."

Great spot, not quiet.
"Everything was great except this room is VERY close to the main entrance and the walls are VERY thin, making it a noisy stay. On top of that, someone started vacuuming the hallway outside at 7am."
