Clean room, dirty pool and good area-not worth it

Pool was disgusting with kids jumping in the jacuzzi with floaters. I told the front desk and they gave us free breakfast but the next day the chef didn’t show up so there was no breakfast. The person working at the cafe the night before had a dirty shirt and hair. It was gross.
