Odd behavior

The staff was very friendly and the rooms were very clean. My favorite part was the restaurant and bar. The bar tender was super sweet and even brought my daughter out ice cream with a candle for her birthday and we didn’t even ask. That was so nice of him. The drinks and food were so good! We had a great stay. The only thing that was weird to us was what we thought was the maintenance man painting the building in front of our room at 10pm.
