Large clean rooms with a big beautiful shower. Excellent hot and cold breakfast buffet. Lots of fun in pool, hot tub and waterslide. But most of us got painful scrapes on our feet from the very rough pool bottom. We were a family group with children on a staycation and would definitely stay here again.
