Poor service

The room was given to us 2 hours after the check in time and our children had to wait at the lobby for the room keys. I chose this hotel for the pool so my siblings could enjoy the place and we did lost half a day. When I asked for compensation, they offered a late check out until 1:30 pm which I usually get anyway for my membership status. Anyway, NOT HAPPY

Es bonito y seguro. Sin embargo la opción de comida es demasiado limitada y el desayuno está bien feo. También deberían separar el área pet friendly para no escuchar ladridos .
