the room was really nice. the amenities and restaurant was amazing. most of the staff was excellent but we had an experience with a female staff member who overcharged us multiple times charging us over $350 in unecassary deposits. her attitude was hostile when asking for explanations for the charges. the other staff members fixed the charges with no issue but it was inconvenient to have that issue in the first place and then be met with a slightly agressive attitude when asked to fix it. other than that experience everything was amazing and we would come back for another stay.
