We had a lovely stay filled with fun and excitement, especially because of the Thomas-themed room that my son adored. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired, with bland food and some service hiccups. Overall, though, we appreciated the clean facilities and engaging children's entertainment options, making it a worthwhile trip.
