Thought the Hotel was beautiful, great location, great staff who all seem very happy to be working there. Did not enjoy our time around the pool when randoms came in off the street to use the pool. One afternoon a couple of girls just walked in off the street and were jumping yelling and screaming in the pool. Not pleasant at all.
