Negative Reviews
negative:
Appears a little dated
While rating the standards here reasonably highly, guests have noted that the general appearance of the park is starting to feel dated. This and the fact that the park has lost its status as a BIG4 park could indicate that maintenance is slipping.
negative:
Games room could be improved
Guests note that the games room for children could be better maintained. It is apparently starting to look a little tired. Also, guests feel that there could be more activities for younger children.
negative:
Poor Wi-Fi
The Wi-Fi here hasn't particularly impressed guests. Although park-wide free Wi-Fi is advertised, guests have encountered difficulties when trying to get online and subsequently found the connection is slow.
