I didn’t go down for breakfast, The pool was not clean I did not get in. My daughter took my granddaughter down in the morning to swim as they were supposed to clean it overnight. It looked better so they got in, until they took the vacuum out. All kinds of stuff came out of it. My daughter and granddaughter had to get out. Definitely need to work on that! The rooms were clean and the staff were super friendly and helpful.

Elevator was broke. They switched my room to accommodate the elevator broken to a smaller room. However room smelled old. Needs updating in bathroom (caulking/fixature) carpet had a stench. Some employees were nice. Breakfast was horrible limited good options and food was either tasteless or overcooked. Would not recommend stay here.pending refund for room downgrade.
