Breakfast was nice, room was awesome, location is very well located, the only thing I did not like is that the hot tub and pool were out of order and I was looking forward to use them to relax.

Was looking forward to using the pool and hot tub. The hot tub was cold and the pool only had about 3/4 of the water it should have had in. I booked 2 rooms in the booking asked for 2 queens was only given 1 room with 2 queens annd other room was a king. Were placed on 2 different floors.
