Staff was very friendly and responsive to requests. Room wasn’t as clean as it should be, left over trash in the room from guests before and cobwebs in the corners. Breakfast buffet had a massive fruit fly problem. Food options are not good in the resort- thank goodness for the attached famous Dave’s which was delicious
