If you're an adrenaline junkie, you have to zip line by the Falls. My friend I debated for a few…read morehours if it was something we wanted to do and I'm so glad we did it. It is a little on the pricey side. When we went it was around $60 a person but we thought "when are we going to do this again?". We did have to wait about 30 minutes before it was our turn but it could have been a lot worse. The ride down is breathtaking. You see the best view of Niagara Falls and it's kind of cool having people watch you have the time of your life. They do take photos of you going down the zip line. So if you want a souvenir, they have you covered.

The ride was one of the BEST things I have done in my life. I would recommend this to anyone with a…read moreneed for adrenaline. Also, Justice was a really nice ride operator and didn't let me die!

Reducing 1-star due to recent visit (2 years since last)…read more We went on a Friday, expecting reduced crowd volume (non-US holiday). Crowd volume still seemed heavy, but manageable. What wasn't manageable was their processing of entrees to get in. They had a single station to process everyone, and the payment system was taking forever. We arrived at 10am when the pool opened, and didn't actually get in until 11am. A full hour wait is pretty outrageous. Having a second payment station would have made it much quicker. Of course you can expect lower food quality at these types of places, but this was still disappointing. Frozen-pizza quality pizza, for more than a legit pizza, and then they overcooked it on top of that. The waterpark itself was still fun, but eventually our kids will outgrow it. Still good for small kids though (ages 2-8).

It felt like a tropical resort in Ontario. The temperature outside was about 5 degrees Celsius but…read moreyou couldn't tell inside and you really didn't need to leave for any reason (unless you wanted to). Room: Comfortable for 4 people, including an infant. They happily supplied a crib but you can't reserve it ahead of time. You had to request it when you check-in. They will then deliver it to your room within 10 minutes and leave it to you to set it up. Yes, you can hear tons of noise but it's a family resort. We had a technical malfunction during our stay with the door and they were quick to repair it and offering us a different room if we wanted (which we declined). The cable in the room is WEIRD! I wish they had supplied an outline of the stations because it wasn't obvious where to find what. Otherwise, room was clean and comfortable and loved having direct access to the parking lot as well as the hotel. Water park: Tons of fun for young kids! Lots of life jackets for young swimmers. Lifeguards appeared very attentive and were quickly stopping any unruly behaviour. It was nice and warm inside the park and they have a shop that sells anything you might have forgotten...except swim diapers, they don't sell those! Arcade: Everything was working when we were there and lots of fun for the kids. Lots of options for prizes as well. The oasis poolside snack bar, which is fully licensed, is my new favourite place. I made no less than 8 trips there during my stay. Their mocktails and cocktails were delicious. Food was fresh and 4 flavours of dippin' dots as well. The only breakfast option is a paid all-you-can-eat buffet. $10 for kids and $20 for adults. This part was frustrating as my child was sick most of the weekend and if you just wanted a cup of juice you were stuck. Also, I was never hungry enough to warrant the adult buffet price. I just wanted coffee... For those who only want a cup of coffee in the morning: they do offer complimentary coffee and tea to the room or you can go to the lobby and pay $2.80 for a delicious cup of coffee that comes out of a preset machine. After my first cup, that became my second favourite part of the hotel (after the Oasis snack bar). The one downside? The front desk staff! On Saturday morning, while I was enjoying the coffee described above, I saw at least 3 different parties at the desk asking to speak to management for various issues. On our checkout day, I wanted to delay our checkout as I had 2 sick children and we had an hour before an important meeting. My son just wanted to stay in bed while we waited. Upon asking the front desk if we could delay our checkout I heard a curt "no" on the phone before they hung up. Instead he used the little energy he had, to walk around the arcade for the hour. It wouldn't deter me from staying there again but just wanted to let others know, they aren't flexible on their policies. Overall, it was an amazing weekend away! I would definitely stay there again!

* No Pictures What…read moreto say about Clifton Hill. Tourist street of all streets. Restaurants, bars, attractions, arcades. Children's and adults playground of all sorts. The reason for the 3 stars is just the prices for everything is astonishing. I get it's all tourist so that's the reason but definitely figure out what you want to see and do before coming down as things add up. Also, it's called a Hill for a reason. Trouble walking, or young or super tired/ sore this street is a pain to walk up. Did it many times and boy are my legs sore. The lights and sounds are nice to see at night. Could be super crowded at times. Overall 7.5 out of 10

The Shop They are located right on Lundy's Lane with parking in the back, its only a couple of spots but there is a shopping center across the street so there are plenty of places to park. The shop is clean and well organized so it is easy to find what you are looking for. The Selection They carry all the new pulls each week. I have never had a problem getting the new stuff when it comes out. They also have a large selection of hardcovers is that's what your looking for. On top of the comics they have all sorts of toys, statues and collectibles. The Staff The staff at Big B are great. They are very knowledgeable and eager to help. They are also very passionate about comics and can be easily lured into in-depth discussion about character or series. Also, they are always around, I have never had to go looking for someone which is really nice.

We also loved the attached restaurant- delicious food, drinks, and cool atmosphere! Cons: The walls are PAPER thin. You hear everything. We stayed off of the courtyard, and it was SUCH a regrettable decision. Kids were SCREAMING until 11PM. It was so obnoxious and we got no sleep. We also booked a second floor room, and they put us in ground level. Additionally, the pool bar was closed during hours advertised open, and one of the hot tubs was shut down.

Check-in was quick and easy. Staff were friendly, gave us suggestions on the easiest way for us to unload. Rooms have a welcome message on the TV with the guest name so you feel seen and not just another guest. Until I had kids I didn't fully appreciate in-room amenities but I do now and this one covered it all. Conveniently located beside a grocery store and a pharmacy (and a McDonald's) so if you need anything, it's literally a stone throw away. Beds are comfy! Nice soft pillows and blankets. Perfect room temperature. I think we all got amazing sleep. Rooms are also relatively soundproof so you can get kids to sleep early. Amenities: pool and hot tub are great. My kids loved it. The indoor playground is an awesome option because I could let my son run around while I was still waking up. The arcade was also a great way to pass the time. Wanted to try the gym but to be honest, I was barely functioning all weekend. Food: the Irish pub that's on-site has all your bases covered. They have a poolside outlet as well and you can charge to the room if you don't want to carry a card around. They have options are unique but also some pub favourites. We ate there twice plus ordered stuff from the poolside pub. Everything was good EXCEPT the beef brisket ravioli. Sorry, it needed to be said, it was just weird! They were accommodating to kids of all ages plus a nice place for adults to relax at the end of the day. Checkout was easy. Overall: great experience. I would recommend it! My kids loved it. Very convenient. I think until both my kids can get the most out of the water parks. I've found my place to stay!

We came in for a Saturday night magic show. We thought it was amazing, but left at intermission…read morebecause we were both incredibly exhausted. From what we saw the show was great, the illusions were incredible and unlike cases where the tricks are obvious, there were some amazing illusions that had us questioning how that was possible. Two magicians performed and it was very cool to watch. My husband was even able to participate before we left. The one downside I would note is that this is a child friendly show, which isn't a problem, except you may be put at a table with young children. When sat we were put next to each other causing a party of five to be across from us, they sat the young children at the end of the table, so they could see understandably, but they sat parents down at the opposite end. The family was very respectful, but if you are not a children person, this may not be the environment for you. Over all great show! I wish I wasn't exhausted and could have stayed for the whole thing!

When we started to think we knew what was happening, he had a unique twist that surprised us. They incorporate animals into the show and we loved that. Overall, 3 adults and 2 teens were captivated. We didn't eat there but feedback from the table was that the food was "meh". We did get some mocktails and were surprised by affordable pricing. We wished there were some desserts to order. Note: If you have a WEGO pass, it's off the blue line by the Howard Johnson's stop. Parking was still advertised as "free" if you had tickets to the show so we parked there earlier in the day. **It is not**. We were told by the attendant that it is $5 cash/$6 card with tickets (still reasonable for the area). Free ended 2 months ago and to take it up inside. I did and they confirmed it ended. I sent an email with the info from their site that says it's free still and they said they would take that down and did offer a refund if I called.

My cousin worked here while going to school and qualified for a govm't pension. I'm not kidding!! I've lived equal parts of my life on both sides of the border, so it is a unique spot as a visitor, and an extra stop as a local. I like picking up my beer at grocery store, gas station, corner store, etc, now-a-days. If you are driving across the border, stop at the duty free and pick up a case or a bottle for about half the price. One case or bottle per adult in vehicle. It is a crime in my family to show up at gatherings, without taking advantage of the duty free allotment. Of course, a beer store trip will still be a necessity.

The line was a bit lengthy, but time passed quickly when you're occupied with friends.

The go-karting itself was very fun, with many bumps, hills, and 5 rounds which is lengthy. It was very fun being able to challenge myself in trying to speed up and get to first place. Super exciting experience, definitely recommend! It's beginner and pro friendly.

We really didn't get too wet because we wore our rain coats and put the provided poncho overtop which protected everything except our faces and feet. DO THIS. My friend told me she wasn't interested in getting soaked but I convinced her to come and she thanked me afterwards. AWESOME!!! You can also choose to stay down on the lower deck where you don't get wet at all. My husband did that. I am going to drag him up on the Hurricane Deck next trip...
