There wasn’t anything but local channels on the television. The television was a Samsung smart TV that had no apps to sign into but had cast capability. When I went to cast my Netflix it would not. When I inquired about it they told me my phone was not compatible. I have the same televisions at my house so I know that wasn’t true. The alarm clock is programmed through the television but it would not work and I was late for a very important meeting.

Family retreat

Great place to relax and get away from it all. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the indoor pool was not heated and the game room was small. Even with that the rooms were clean and bed pretty comfortable.
