The only issues I had were that the room was not very clean, there were splatters of unknown substances on the wall behind the sink and around the toilet. Biggest problem was the black mold in the shower. The breakfast wasn’t bad, just very tight space and minimal options. Overall, the hotel is in a good area and no issues with the staff. There is a resort fee because there is a pool, even if you don’t use it.

The room had no hot water and if it did you would have to run the shower for almost 30 min before you want to shower. There was a lot a discolored wall and cracks. The shower head also has absolutely no pressure what so ever it drips. The staff was not helpful in any way. Also the shuttles only go to 2 parks and they are not early they are later in the day. So we had to uber to every park which cost a lot of money. Ended up having to move to another hotel because the staff was not helpful with the hot water issue.

They charge a resort fee, which is buried in the fine print on Expedia and called a service fee. Let me tell you - this place is a motel with motel amenities. It is no resort. The only thing covered in the resort fee that I used was the parking, which they called "complimentary." Well, it isn't complimentary if they charge you a resort fee for it. The shower head did not work - water barely trickled out. The door had a gaping gap about a half-inch all around, plenty of room for nearly any bug to get through. Checkout is at 11 and at 10:50 a fellow was already knocking at the door (which had the do-not-disturb placard hanging) to run me out of the room. There are much better hotels in the area for about the same price, so do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.

Shuttle bus to theme parks only take you to the park at half day so you would miss half a days worth of your ticket and it picks you back up before the park closes. Not worth it and it should not be advertised as an amenity. Sink water was absolutely disgusting, you could smell it! Breakfast has eggs (oily), waffles, potatoes (dry) and sausage and seating could only hold 10-15 people (already sitting) while there was a line of about 20 people to get breakfast. No elevators, if you have big bags you have to walk up to 3rd. Location feels in the middle of nowhere. Would not recommend at all.
