Was initially here for a convention and decided to stay a night. The place is massive, parking can be confusing and isn't included in the hotel stay, it's kinda pricey too. This is probably to deter folks from loitering around the resort if parking were free/cheap. The convention area is nicely carpeted hushing down crowd conversations, rooms are in various sizes and nicely lit. I really like the layout of the resort having communal space mixed in with the hotel rooms amidst the atriums. Walking paths are abundant, connecting you to all the places inside the resort. As much as I love walking, a foot injury forced me to think about how disabled folks would get around the resort. They probably would get around easily since there are a lot of lifts servicing the various floors. For entertainment, there's a water park (that we didn't use), gaming centers & bars. Dining options are on the pricey side too, might as well go to the mall and get food there. For the room, we got the parlor view, meaning you get a view of the outside area, not inside. The layout is unique, spacious bedroom/living room & dining room, access to the restroom can be hindered when using the coffee/closet. The room had a wall (Murphy) bed, which was interesting, but served it's purpose. It was a bit saggy, but support was alright, offering a good night's sleep. Since we were at the very end of the hallway, it was really quiet which was nice.
