Each day the TV that was inside of the Bunk Bed room area, did not work. Was told that the TV would be fixed and never was. The water to the entire property was shut off without notice, we had to wait for over an hour for the water to be shut back on which delayed our early entry into the park and our breakfast reservation. Was told that their would be building blocks inside of the room, those were never there until we requested them. Was told when booking that we would have a nightly treasure hunt and Legos would be inside of the lock box. That did not happen. When asking castle staff about park or hotel information they were not knowledgeable at all. This happened throughout the entire castle and stay. The staff encourage you to collect badges for the lanyards they give you at check in, but when you ask different staff members they tell you no but ask another associate, and each associateits the same response to the point where we just stopped asking. When trading your minifigures the selection is from what ever another hotel guest has turned in so there is not a great selection to choose from. On two separate days housekeeping came inside of the room after being told that we were coming to the door. Both days they neber announced themselves, the just entered the room. Before arriving to the door to allow them to come in.
