Inside of dresser drawers were dirty. Cafe was closed early due to staff shortage. I couldn't do a room upgrade at the hotel, only thru expedia.com We didn't have time for that with being involved with children. No phone, no radio/alarm. No clock at all in room. Staff was nice. We sure felt less of a respected customer because we booked thru Expedia and didn't pay their price. That is what our impression was. Staff was nice. Kitchen and cafe closed early. SHORT STAFFED Beautiful place, pool area is excellent. Ty Will I return ? Yes But needs improvement with staff shortage and not a hike in rental prices. Ty
