Room was clean air conditioner worked pool was clean opened in the morning service was nice but the breakfast choices could have been better something to go with the waffles maybe a fruit choice or some hard-boiled eggs would have been nice just waffles or cereal would be good for the kids snacks but most definitely lacking breakfast protein. The staff was friendly no other complaints we would totally stay there again but knowing the lack of choices we would prepare
