The room was fantastic, the pool was very clean and relaxing. One thing to note is that before traveling I called to ask if we could bring in food, she said yes but no glass, so I asked are drinks also allowed and was told yes, so we brought food and drinks and then were told they were not allowed. Yes it was clearly posted on the gate, but they need to make sure the staff at the desk also knows what is allowed and not. Also, the food at the pool and Canyon grill could really use an update. That all said we will definitely come back, totally good value for what we paid.

It was very good. Room was clean. Mountainous area so it felt like room was under ground but it kind of wasn't. Rough check in because of the construction but everyone else at the property was very nice and polite. Great property, would definitely come back.
