    The room needs a some work. Broken door hinge and ceiling is collapsing in the bathroom.

    I liked the family friendly atmosphere for my 2 year old, husband, and me.

    We asked to check in early and were asked to pay $50 more, that was fine, we were told we would lose our pool view, that was fine. We were not told we were placed next door and in the middle of a huge cheerleading convention. The noise was so beyond loud from the room next door I had to ask someone to come talk to them. Our walls were shaking from all their jumping around and yelling all night long, and the staff knocked on the door pointed at our room and told them I was complaining. NOT professional at all. I would have liked to have been at least warned of our new location and possible noise so I could have made the decision on checking in early to that room.

    Nice location, big room, clean, food at restaurant was good.

    If you book through anyone but the hotel then all amenities become more expensive or not available.

    No complimentary breakfast, no microwave, the bar in the pool closed early, and the inside pool was too cold for my kids to swim. Not having a microwave was probably my biggest complaint.

    Super nice and really clean. My kids loved the pool and the bubble party.

    They do not have a generator how can a resort such as Moody Gardens do not have a general generator, we went without power and they agree to refund us for 1 night , but our memorial day getaway vacation was disrupted.

    all good.

    Overpriced. Power was out for 3 hours during the night and the emergency speakers system kept going off. We ordered room service and was quoted 45 minutes but had to call back 2 hours later and they said it would be another 30 minutes because they are so busy.

    Location was ok. Friendly staff. Pool was great

    The animal exhibits were disappointing. To have nearly 1/3 of the exhibit closed seemed like a complete waste for the price.

    The room was nice and clean. The main areas of the hotel were beautiful and clean.

    Probably a better explanation of packages, and info that if you are staying at hotel, package are cheaper

    Breakfast is a tad pricey. Considering a lot of places have free continental breakfast. Good though,

    The pool bar drinks were terrible won’t recommend, I wish the pillows were a bit softer and when we were playing outdoors games we saw huge 2 big roaches by the plants and bench. We immediately went inside as for the other lady with her child. Not a bug fan.

    I love that the attractions are right next to the hotel. The staff were really great! Staff in the front were really nice as for the ones in the cafe. We were eating breakfast and Jessy was really nice/helpful. Also the man in the shuttle was kind and greeted us . The experience was awesome! Definitely would come back again.

    The bathroom was not as clean as I would have liked. I had to wipe hairs out of the tub and off of the floor.

    The hotel was in a great location and had a lot of amenities. The room was very nice with a comfortable bed. We enjoyed our stay.
