Rooms were clean. Staff was nice. Only issue was with the pool. Pool was not working properly and was flooding. Water in all walk ways. Chlorine was so high it burned your eyes and you were coughing within 10 min. We got out, along with many families b/c it didn't seem safe.

Our room was not very clean and they did not come to clean it or provide towel’s until I called down to ask for them and even then it took hours for them to bring them to the room. When you don’t come and clean the rooms daily it should be mentioned somewhere. When you have more than one person in a room garbage can pile up so I had to get rid of all of that myself. Not right
