MEA wknd
Our family of five styed for one night over MEA wknd. waterpark was a lot of fun!
Rooms could use a bit of updating. Beds were uncomfortable as were the pillows. Loud mattress protectors. We did enjoy our stay ultimately just a few suggestions regarding the rooms/beds.

One and Done
Not so good. We were put in a room next to very noisy kids. The front desk was notified but no change by 10:30 pm. Started again at 7:00 am. More awareness at the front desk would be helpful - but we will never return.

Botched Reservation
Check in was horrible. Made me late to a work dinner. Did not show a reservation for me and made me pay again even with the receipt I had prepaid from Hotels.com. After dinner I checked in with a different person who found the reservation on Expedia. Apparently it comes to them that way and the first person was unaware of that. The next day they refunded my money. The worse part is I could not locate a Hotels.com phone number to call when my reservation was missing. The chat bot sucks. I have had this happen in the past and always had a good phone response with Hotels.com customer service. Since the change this company has really gone downhill and I will no longer be booking through this site. The Lodge was fine but I was only there for a brief overnight stay. By the way the rate at the Lodge was $93 versus the $130 I paid on this site. And that was using some of my points. So much for a discount!

Cold pool
Overall everything was good, besides a few things …
Pizza in the pool took 50 minutes!
Pool was extremely cold, but hot tub was great.
We liked the nice free breakfast.

Rooms very dated, need new sofa and chairs in living room very worn down. Both mattresses need to be replaced, leaning and dipping. Room was clean, very quite despite having a waterpark near by. Continental breakfast very good !!!!
