Chris, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel, friendly staff, and relatively clean. The only thing that I'd like to see improve is options and availability of food options. We tried to order some food while enjoying the pool in the evening, but they ran out of pizzas. There's barely anything available to eat for breakfast. Overall I would still recommend this hotel since it has option with 2 bedroom/2 bathroom, so it's perfect for a family.
Angelika, 3-night trip

The transportation was very easy to use to get to parks. And the hotel was just amazing all around
Logan Christopher, 4-night trip
