We booked this while traveling with our kids to attend a funeral. The pool would have been great, but there was a birthday party and a softball team/teams. So the pool was not really safe for the our smaller children as those folks were un there living it up. Also the poolside rooms felt really damp inside, so be prepared for that if you request a poolside room, i doubt there is much a hotel could do about that.
