When I arrived I was notified the pool and hot tub were not working. In the room, the Tv didnt work. No one ever came to fix it. The mattress was hard and full of decompressed areas. Pillows were hard and very lumpy. I was told they were all the same. Checkin staff had no interest in the problem. Loud music in the middle of the night.
