Not so great.

I’ve stayed here before (same time last year). Place was deserted on a Tuesday night. Asked for a free upgrade to room off the ground floor near pool (which they gave me last year at n/c). They would only do it for another $60. Again…. Place was deserted. Went to 24 hour pool and the bar closed at 5:00 pm. No cocktails. Had to go into the casino in a wet bathing suit to get a drink. Pool decor was grim and depressing. Room was comfortable and clean however. I wasn’t thrilled. Skip this place.

I reserved 4 rooms and each room came with a $25 food credit. Well the resort only honored one $25 credit even though the front desk said I would be able to use all room credits in transactions because it was all under my name. All I needed to show them was my ID. When I called them to adjust my invoice they said they could not do it. I feel I didn’t receive my benefits in this trip.

Room noisy

The hotel is very nice. The room was clean and large. The problem was the in room refrigerator was buzzing all night. I also could hear faucets going on and off. I am not noise sensitive and live in NYC so for this to be bothersome is relavant. I wouldn’t stay here again because of this.
