This place lacks a certain polish. i found the staff inexperienced (maybe they were new) and not attentive enough. i asked where breakfast was and even suggested they might have an app. also, our water had issues. The bathwater for my kids was yellow, dirty, and full of waste. i had to call someone to fix it.
