The place was amazing , the staff was amazing , I would have been perfect until the neighbor dog chased my 3 year old daughter in to room from the patio . She was extremely scared, I have it all on video ,the neighbor walked into my room smelling like cigarettes and didn’t even say sorry. She only said the dog wanted to say hi, I don’t know what the policy is for dogs but this ruined the whole experience.
