The room was lovely and the staff was very accommodating and kind. The pool was not in great shape and the jacuzzi was sudsy and a foot low in water. There were very few places to sit by the pool.
For a hotel at this level, the food was not very impressive. If the food quality were improved, this would be a great place to stay. I really liked the room, and the restaurant staff were excellent very attentive, professional, and kind. However, the food itself needs significant improvement. I was almost tempted to go out to eat at another restaurant, but unfortunately it was raining.
