Large expansive resort. The room was nice. But the shower curtain was building up the reddish brown stains from soap and not drying. Couple of black spots that looked like mold. During the check-in, Jayden at the desk had a condescending attitude, as if we were beneath the status to stay at McKinley. Continued to explain how cold and hot breakfast is different.
