Staff was extremely helpful and friendly however there was a time whenfront desk worker who didnt speak English so she really couldnt assist us. Rooms were clean and spacious. Pool and hot tub looked maintained (pool was salty not sure why) however both times we went to pool there were no clean towels and the phone in the pool area to front desk was broken. Additionally the breakfast advertised Cinnabon but was never actually served while we were there which was disappointing
