This hotel's lobby and bar area are nicely appointed, and the grounds are pretty.
Activities for kids include the ability to buy s'mores kits and use them at the fire pits while watching a movie in the courtyard. Arts and crafts, face and nail painting are offered (fee).
The rooms were nothing out of the ordinary. No mini-fridge, no microwave. Furniture was crossing over into the shabby territory. Sofa was worn and frayed, nicks and stains on wood. The dead bolt kept jamming on the door, and some of the wall paper was peeling. To me, the carpets looked fine. Having a balcony off each room was nice.
No on-site golf course, one basketball goal, a small swing set and three tiny, cloudy pools. Small lap pool was supposed to be for adults only, but always had children and parents overflowing into it. The zero entry kid's pool was more like a fountain with about 6 inches of water in it. The common use pool was very small and always full because of its size, along with the jacuzzi/hot tub built into the corner of the regular pool.
Staff was very friendly and quick to respond.
Breakfast Buffet in the restaurant cost 14.99, did not have a wide selection, and had the most horrible powdered eggs.
The best thing about the stay was the older gentleman who drove the Sea World Shuttle.
A nice enough experience, but all in all, the Holiday Inn up the road on Hwy 151 was just as nice and cost less.
