Annissa (staff) was the reason that this vacation was amazing. Caring, compassionate, and had ultimate hospitality and professional experience. She deserves a raise, and a promotion. There is a blk American girl that needs training on customer service and hospitality. She put me in a room that had spiders and had strangers trying to enter my room 3 times. The food was not even mid at the hotel. Just go out and eat. Salmon on sweet potato puree? Annisa is the only reason. I would come back and possibly leave her a huge tip. There is no room service, so you have to go to lobby to place an order. Bartender was arrogant. I guess because I didn’t want to eat at the bar/restaurant. I loved the new room I was transferred to. I got to see the nightly displays shown on the monument. What a delight. I highly recommend. Just stay away from room 14-114-118. Trust me. Ask for a different room. Other than that, very lovely experience.

Everything was amazing minus the fact that the down comforter on the bed had blood stain on it which means it hasn’t been changed in a while because it was very dry. That was very disgusting & we took it off the bed. In this day & age everything should be taken off a bed after each guest visit.
