First time here. Great value with room rate, water park and food/drink prices. Breakfast bar needed restocking sooner and tables cleaned after use, or a container of table wipes for use.
Room was nice and clean but the mattresses are very soft and saggy.
Smells nice everywhere. Water park slides and river could use a little more supervision.
Head server (blonde, young lady) is exceptional with guests and training other servers, people at hostess stand in Sliders are great with guests in all the chaos.
