We chose this hotel specifically for the pool, and it was impressive. The plants were all well taken care of, the live fish were entertaining, and the open roof was lovely. There were always enough chairs, and it was fantastic to see so many attentive lifeguards. The slide was really fun! The pool is showing some signs of age, but it's all very safe. The hot tub was HOT, and I loved it.
The room was close to the pool, but not poolside (as we requested) so it was nice and quiet. I'm hoping these rooms are scheduled for renovation soon. The bathroom was not in the greatest repair - the toilet paper holder was inconveniently placed and only half attached to the drywall for one. Also, the blackout curtains fell about 6 inches short so the room was lit all night. But, the beds were super comfortable and clean, and that was the most important thing. Overall, the hotel was clean and the staff was very nice.
We didn't use the arcade, but it was bigger than expected, full of modern games, and looked like fun.
The restaurant attached to the hotel was convenient, but we waited over 30 min for food that wasn't particularly good. However, many other restaurants and stores were within walking distance, so it didn't impact our trip too much.
