I have a service dog and they tried to charge me a fee for the dog. I argued with the manager. When I checked in. He told me the fee would be waived. When I checked out the fee was added to my bill. I argued with a manager while I was checking out. Supposedly they refunded the fee but I won't know until I get my bill. Not service dog friendly

Property was great. Checking in the attendant was not very friendly at all. All other staff was amazing and very attentive. Water dispenser in the "Smile to Go" was not working or not filled, therefore getting water was very limited. Restaurants on site were also great, with amazing service!
