I didn’t like my room because from my arrival I notice that the toilet leaks there were no washcloths for two people’s no services for cleaning, no welcome packages and I was locked out the room for almost 20 minutes because the keys card wasn’t working and they need a lock mixed for repairs. So I’m not to Happy with this staid this vacation at this property. And I paid over $1000 and not receiving a good services at all .
