Overall this was a convenient and walkable location. I would overall recommend but for picky travellers like me here are the dislikes: The bathroom had grime and hairs along the outside edge of the bathtub. It was overall clean but not thoroughly clean. We returned from the park to nap mid day and the music from the water park was PUMPING. There was no one enjoying the water park but lifeguards. The shower didn’t drain but maintenace was called and the problem was resolved.
