They were very helpful in finding me an additional room and were very helpful to my family. Very kind staff, all of them, coffee was always available, breakfast was good. Thank you! A short swim was enjoyable with fun, a little longer would of been nice, but we understand the time difference, (10PM your time is only 8:00 PM our time).
