How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it. Read the reviews yourself on Google Maps.

Nice place for kids to splash around although when I walked in the workers were all messing around and I had to wait for someone to finally notice me and let me pay. My kid was face down in the water drowning and I ran in to grab her out without a notice from the lifeguard. I had a worker come over to our table and shut the umbrella on mine and my friends head when he could’ve waited a second to shut it as we were obviously zipping up our bags and leaving or asked if we could back up while he shut it. Definitely needs some more training.

The pool set up is great especially for smaller children. Everything was clean and tidy. The rest breaks were much appreciated. And the staff was friendly and helpful.

Very nice park, some places to sit down, not a lot of shade, pool located in the park too, parking on side streets.
