The pool was heated and open late. There was also a hot tub. Floats and rafts were allowed, so it was very fun and lively.

Decent stay overall

friendly staff multiple restaurants thin walls animal hair

I found the staff to be really friendly!!! The front desk agent Joalys helped me with my issues and did a quick check in. I WILL be returning. I like that the hotel is close to multiple restaurants.

The rooms are quite dated with thin walls. The air conditioning is quite noisy so I needed earplugs. My room contained a lot of animal hair when I arrived.
