The food is frealing awesome, their service is always excellent, the hotel itself is beautiful, our room is always clean when we arrive and it feels clean too. The pool is super fun and clean, ive never seen it crowded. I would say the only thing would be to keep up on the cleanliness of the pool more often. There's chunks of hair sometimes from people swimming with their hair down and for some reason the pool water made my arms/ legs very itchy this time. Overall its always a great stay and every staff member has excellent service!

Nice people that work there. Very clean room and property. Restaurant is typical coffee shop with an added twist of creativity and Casino games are fair and not a one way street. Great overall trip and would highly recommend staying there when in the area.
