Cons (-) Valet almost tboned my car as we were driving to self parking. He pulled out of their drive so fast. Was difficult to get the front desk personnel to pay attention to us. There were always multiple people staffing the front desk, but they would avoid looking at you and would not offer assistance. Twice I had to interrupt two front desk employees talking to each other in order to get assistance.
Pros (+) Very little below arvarage for any resort
Cons (-) Vacuum running in the halls st 1:45 am House keeping banging the carts against the walls. Double charged room sevice fee. Served cold food! Overall poor service ! No door man Very slow valet Employees were rude and arrogant not warm or friendly.. Never again will i visit nor will i recomend to family or friends
Pros (+) Fabulous facility in a beautiful setting. Friendly and efficient staff.
