Train your front desk they don't know what they are doing. They couldn't find in the reservation and double charged for each room. Need to have your cleaning people clean better. And your signature cookies are a joke your front desk people eat them unless you know about them and ask they don't offer

needs improvement
The room smelled of mold. The carpet was somewhat wet. The air conditioning didn’t keep the room cool and would shut off and on even if fan was set to on. The room was humid - even though we’re in florida there are ways to mitigate that. The bathroom was dirty and the shower floor was extremely dirty w black foot prints. Customer service was lacking - not inviting or welcoming.

First, the staff were nice but reaching them in a timely manner was an issue for the entire trip. Calls recirculated to the “operator” which was the main line and any option rang without any answer. This cycle went on for over 5 minutes the few times we called. Next, the bathroom was filthy. Broken shower tiles, some lifted along the edge enough to rattle when the door opened and closed. Orange bacteria stains or perhaps red mold throughout. Clogged drain caused the bottom of the shower to flood within minutes. The sink faucet was installed too close to the counter and would make it impossible to wash hands without flooding the surrounding area. Towels smelled clean but were stained. Replacements were given when we were able to alert the staff. Finally, the mini fridge would not cool and the lightbulbs in the fixtures were all of different temperatures, some warm and bright, some dim and cold, some dim and warm…it was an odd ambiance that made the filth worse.

Hotel was good, slightly dated on some points inside room, but nice spacious bedrooms and general areas good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Only the swimming pool at the front of the property was bit strange, probably why no one used it.
