Great kiddie pool for little kids

Pros: The kiddie pool indoors was perfect for my kids, ages 3 and 2. We were able to sit along the edge and see the kids with ease and we even went down the two slides as the kids requested. The water was warm enough for extended play. The kiddie pool is separated from the big pool by a row of chairs making a nice barrier if you have a quick child who will dash away as we do! Definitely "no frills" but good enough for a two-day stay with little kids.

Cons: NO EARLY CHECK IN... NO BATHMAT... NO CLEARLY DESIGNATED RECYCLING...although when I inquired the lady at the desk said you can leave recyclables by the sink NO TV channels for little kids....Disney, but no Disney Jr. One of the kiddie fountains wasn't working, but this wasn't a big deal.

Clean and decent rooms plus indoor pools and outside good for kids

Pros: Space in rooms are decent and locations for foods at walking distance

Cons: Provide more soap bars and shampoo for the guest everyday plus dry towels

Family friendly

Pros: Booked 2 rooms through Kayak and had no issues. Could only list 4 adults and 4 kids, but adding 1 more adult was easy at the desk. Cost $20 per night to add the 9th person (Noah's Ark entry included). $40 for 2 nights is a steal considering Noah's Ark runs $39 a day! Facilities were decent and accommodated everyone well. Kids LOVED the indoor and outdoor pools!!! When we hit the rooms one toilet was slow to empty. Called the front desk and talked with the attendant. She was checking in a guest and would be right up (second floor, halfway down the building) when she finished. Within 10 minutes she had it plunged and working fine.

Cons: Ice in the machine is "complentary" for guests. This being said, why should I not be able to fill my cooler?
