"Room was decent, pillows were amazingly fluffy. Only negatives off the top of my head were the hot tub was like warm and filled with kids under 10 frequently, elevator was extremely slow, and breakfast really could use like cheap scrambled eggs and breakfast meats. We ended up going out to get breakfast instead of just carbs and coffee."
