disappointing
It was disappointing in the end. Check-out time was 11 a.m. One of the housekeeping people came to the room by 10 a.m. and asked us to leave quickly. I thought he came for housekeeping, but he came to tell us to hurry to leave. That was very inappropriate.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
We paid for a room for two queen beds. And the room was supposed to be able to sleep 6 comfortably. That is not what we got. For our family of 5. We got ONE FULL size (very uncomfortable) bed and a couch that pulled out into a uncomfortable bed. Leaving two kids to have to sleep on the floor. Very over priced and not worth the money. Everything was extra. Parking extra breakfast extra coffee extra.
I came with my 6 year old grandson, we had a really nice time. It was our first trip here and we will be back. Now that we know the surroundings and all the things we can do we will know better how to plan our days.
This GWL is almost worn out. Old and dirty. We still had fun but would not recommend it to anyone.

We enjoyed our short stay. The children had a Great time with all the activities.
Not a fan of the cashless requirement.
The dining options are very expensive.
Not sure why we have to pay for parking considering the cost of the rooms.

Took my son for an overnight trip and we had a very nice time. Checking in went fairly well, considering how busy it was and the staff was able to get everyone in smoothly and quickly. My room wasn't ready at check in time, but I was treated to a free large pizza and a 2 liter of soda in compensation for the wait. My son and I did the Pup Pass for 35.00 extra which included a free 5.00 voucher to the arcade, a scoop of ice cream (and they are VERY generous with that scoop), a cup of candy from the candy shop and also a free stuffed animal from Build-a-Bear that my son got to make himself. All the staff have been great, but the ladies who worked in the Build a Bear shop really stood out because
were so nice and patient with my son. He is autistic and loud noises really bother him, so instead of having him use the stuffing machine (which is pretty loud), they gave him one that was on the shelf. The only con would be that the drink machine was completely out of drinks. The room was nice and clean and the hotel itself was nice and cool as well. We will definitely be back ☺️
