8/10 Good
"We had a good stay and staff in the restaurant were fantastic. I contacted them numerous times prior to our stay with no response which was very disappointing. I needed to know a few things prior and kept messaging daily with no response. Checking out the young girl was talking to someone in a back office and was not interested in us at all. Too busy having her ice coffee and chatting. Not a good look."
