The staff was amazing. Extremely personable, and helpful for questions. However, the first night I did not sleep at all. The room they assigned was facing the extremely busy road for the area. Then, our air conditioner did not work properly, and the only way to keep it cooled off was to open windows to hear the traffic, horns, sirens, etc…. Or get up every 30 minutes or so, and reset the air conditioner. Unreal!!! The next morning I requested a different room, and they moved us to a different building, facing the same highway. The ONLY way to get away from the highway noise and get AC, was to pay more money. I really don’t think that was fair, at all.

The rooms were very clean, that is the main positive. No shuttle to/from airport or local popular attractions (Zoo/Seaworld). The resturant there had good food. The service was hit or miss. Sometimes the staff was attentive and other days our waitress disappeared. Expect to spend some time there if you choose to eat. The location is a bit isolated from other locations to eat. The pools are heated, so that was nice. The rooms away from the main building have NO sound barrier. We didn't sleep well for 5 nights! Having kids above you or adults that thump when they walk will wait you. I think the parents left there kids alone and went to the bar. From 9pm - 3am the kids were running, jumping, screaming..😳🙄 Also, adults..keep this NO sound barrier in mind if you do adult activities in your room. This location is ok, as I mentioned at the top, great cleaning staff, but I won't stay here again. Not worth the $$$.
