Overall, this hotel offers a clean and relaxing environment with a lovely pool area and ample activities for kids, making it ideal for families. However, the dining experience can be frustrating due to limited availability at the restaurant and the pool area tends to get overcrowded. Additionally, while the staff is helpful, the cabin accommodations can feel cramped and lack certain amenities for larger families.
