I reserved this hotel 3 months ago for a room with a King bed. Upon arrival, I was informed they had no rooms with King or Queen beds left, and was forced to take a double bed. This was not mentioned as even a possibility on the website. It is totally unacceptable.

Lovely property. It would have been great if they would have done proper lighting in the parking areas and the resort front.

Thin ceilings, i.e., heard foot traffic ; ( Thus, make sure you're on 2nd floor. Looking for a "water" in the Main Lobby, FORGET IT ! ! ! No free water ewer, nor coffee, nor tea, like La Quinta. Travelocity price too high ; ( Power went out for over 12 hours, NO explanation from Staff about "what" occurred, also, NO warning about NOT drinking the water, possible contamination ; ( Found out later in the day, Princess Resort, nearby, furnished "free" bottled water to "everyone", Chalet- NOT : (

The resort was very pleasant. The square had nice entertainment and atmosphere by the fun the guests were having hanging out near the fire pits, restaurant and bar. It was very inconvenient not having WiFi in our room. It is available in lobby but when you have to handle a lot of business, communication and travel plans via internet, it just brings us to the current demand for technology even though we’re there to also enjoy the beautiful nature and wildlife.
