Everything was great. It’s is a nice quaint area of town. It is safe and clean and the life guards at the water park are really on it and make sure your kids are safe and are super friendly as well.

The water park was great minus for they only had 10 attractions and at any time only half were open. The room was nice but you can tell the cleaners don’t move furniture often to clean under stuff or bend over to clean under tables and vanities. Anything visible was clean though.
