"Not over impressed."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
My Mom passed away Jan 01, wanted a day get away and went up there for a night stay with my girlfriend. The hotel was ok, but definitely could have been more cleaner, the bed was awful, the front desk did tell us they got new beds a few months back….., I tell you it was so uncomfortable! Not a good night rest at all, not at all a complainer but it wasn't a memorable experience The day away from the hotel was good however!

"Experience"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
The hotel was explained to use over the phone and at the front desk during checking that the water park, mini golf and laser tag was included in the experience. It was a little misleading when the only thing included was water park passes. Overall a good experience was still had.
