Did I have a good time here with a bunch of friends that were staying at the same hotel? Yes. Would I ever come back to this pool otherwise? No.
I ordered a fruit plate and 2 bottles of water in the morning. Waitress told me $21 but didn't hand me the bill..... I decided to take it from her hand and look for myself. The bill was $20.10 and stamped across the top "GRATUITY INCLUDED". The day before we had been ordering food and cocktails and tipping our servers all day, but I did think it was weird we never saw our tabs. Smart on their part, but you may want to check for yourselves.
We were there mid-July. It seemed pretty slow during the week and the pool party wasn't as insane as I had remembered a few years back. My opinion... clientele was a bit, ahem, trashy. For the money you spend at this pool, you'd expect some swankier patrons.
Water wasn't freezing, actually quite comfortable, a definite plus!
