"Public pool meets Six Flags Hurricane Harbor vibes. This hotel stay was a disappointment to say the least. We checked in on a Monday, and walked into what I would describe as total chaos —long lines, screaming children everywhere, no available chairs poolside. The small pools and lazy river were all so packed that I felt it was unsafe for young children. At one point a child pooped in the lazy river and they had to close the pool! GROSS!
We paid $700 a night for a double room, plus another $100 a night for resort fees and parking for what felt like a Holiday Inn. The food was terrible and overpriced, and they weren’t serving off the menu for breakfast. There was a line down the hall to get seated for the buffet, which had very limited breakfast options. The hotel staff, including one of the managers, weren’t friendly —with the exception of two friendly servers. One server told us a horrifying story about how she works 18 hours during the busy season, and the hotel will fire servers if someone doesn’t pay their bill. Days later, this same server never brought us a bill or cleared our dirty plates after over an hour of waiting.
Our room had ripped sheets, menstrual blood on the top of the toilet, and stained carpets. The hotel lacked style, but that’s to be expected with a big, Hyatt resort like this one. What bothered me most of all was the poor condition of the pool area —chipping paint and worn patio furniture.
My advice? Never book this hotel Friday-Monday!"
