    Restaurant was excellent. Our waitress was outstanding and food was excellent. Very large portions and quick service. Rooms were clean but very dated. Carpeting in stairwell needed updating. Nice to have fresh coffee available to guests in the lobby.

    The stay was enjoyable! The view was beautiful! Food and service was great! The ac unit needed a filter change or cleaning, it didnt run well, tv remote was broken and the refrigerator was not working well. Otherwise, I will be back with my family!

    Recomiendo tener comprada las entradas de las atracciones ya que evitas las filas y es más económico si lo haces online, todo lo demás excelente

    The staff are friendly and helpful. I would like to see the path to area where skylift, zip line, etc that need to repair. Safety is important.

    There is a shower leak coming from the room next to door. Behind the mirror water is leaking from the wall The toilet is too short. We are seniors, I had knee and hip replacements. Trying to get off the toilet was a challenge. Bed was comfortable but the pillows were lumpy. Our room only had a desk chair, 1 of us had to sit on the bed. That was fairly uncomfortable. Last is the TV. Screen was very fuzzy. The volume is very low even turning it up. Thank you, Barbara Mele Room 311
