Carol J, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Went to check and told us they had to change our room to smaller. Got to room and there was food all over the floor, broken vent, and no linens for pull out bed.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fun but they oversold double queen rooms

They oversold on double queen beds, so they switched me to a king with a pull out bed. The pull out bed was a twin size and in terrible condition. We had four of us, and it wasn’t going to work. The staff gave us an extra room which was nice but it was me and my 3 kids. So two of my kids were in a separate room. The water park closed early for lightning in the area but we never saw any lightning. It was fun but wished I could have had the room I paid for.

Always a pleasure

Stayed here multiple times — always love it! Very clean, friendly staff, all the amenities you could need, beds are comfortable, convenient location to restaurants, fast food, shopping, and interstate. Watiki Water Park is our favorite indoor water park (and this is saying a lot considering how much we travel and how many water parks we've been to).
Molly, 2-night trip
