"The restaurants and restaurant staff are great. The spa and spa staff are great. The hotel itself? While beautiful, it was a horrible experience. Our room flooded TWICE. They did not even clean it the first time until after I went to the front desk and complained. They gave us a food credit, but still didn’t make up for the fact that 2 of our nights were ruined. Our last day was ruined since we had to wait nearly 3 hours just for room service. I’m very disappointed. My family was, too."
"Pictures dont match the property. Property should be listed as a 1 star motel. Roaches in the shower when we arrived, water not working and there is a fan in the room since ac did not work well"
