No hot water in bathroom. The resort moved us to another room only to have the issue unresolved. This resulted in a poor experience.

The front desk employees were very kind and accomodating. The manager was very helpfull on a request and handled it very proffessionally
Housecleaning did an excellent job cleaning my room. The only thing thst needed attention was the water pressure in the shower. It was extremely weak and should be looked at.
Overall I had a great experience
