What we stayed in are the pictures of the Junior Suite but paid for the fancy Master Suite. Web pictures are very misrepresenting and services that were to be provided were not. Shame on you. Pool area was very nice until the pool filter system quit and the pool turned green. That lasted for over a week. The sewer smell that would filter through our room...
