WiFi was not working entire stay, been told different stories about WiFi, Netflix not working, TV nit working. Shower drain must be partially blocked it takes 10 min for the water to clear, shower head no pressure it is blocked needs to be changed, sink drain blocked water takes forever to clear. Staff front desk terrible service and not friendly at all. Being dishonest with the guest's is not acceptable . I would not recommend, i will not go again. Kids loved the pool but water was very cold
