Liked: Amenities
They really keep it too cold in the restaurants and common areas. Friendly staff. There is not a waiter at the pool and it was difficult to get a drink at the pool bar (understaffed). Odd that you’re not allowed to bring in your own beverages to the pool, yet trying to get a beverage at the pool is very difficult. Not a horrible experience; we had fun. It’s just there is need for improvements regarding the drink service at the hotel pool.

Don’t sleep hardly at all due to a drunk person in the hall. We had to call the lobby 4 times from 10pm to2am about a drunk person banging on the door to his room. He was locked out by his GF/wife. Finally cops came around 0400. Really thought the situation would have been handled after the first time we called. And I’m sure we were not the only people who called. Sad how one person can ruin the experience for many.
