I would have given it five stars if the Hispanic made wasn't talking on her speaker phone in front of my room at 7:00 in the morning... Place seemed clean however look under the bed revealed a lot of dust and crumbs. Breakfast was excellent with lots of options not just your Danish OJ and coffee!!!

We never went as cancelled a week out and the person I spoke to gave me a hard time and told me they were going to charge me a $100 penalty. I was appalled. I will never do business with you again unless you take the full charge off my American Express and I have used you on Hawaiian trips years ago.
