Very good but can improve.

The room service was very accommodating and courteous. Did a good job cleaning. However, there was only one small bar of bath soap and insufficient shampoo for a room that accommodates 4 people.

When we arrived we found out that the elevator was out of service. The attendant at the counter explained the situation and was extremely apologetic. I appreciated the way the situation was handled and she was quite kind. Job well done.

Not great

Our Tv did not work the whole 2nd and 3rd day. The front desk did not offer to help. I slipped and fell in the pool because the ladder was very slick and did not have tread on the steps for grip. Hit my shin and because very swollen and painful. The front desk person offered a band aide, it was not bleeding, just very swollen.
