Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall the property is good, the staff was very good especially in the culinary areas. My areas of concern have to do with only being slotted a maximum of FOUR logins for devices. I brought my wife with me and at minimum, we require FIVE…it was very restrictive I worked and had some vacation time and it was less than optimal. There is also an issue with the WiFi signal that would likely be best addressed by additional API’s to stabilize your network. Beyond that, I was pleased. I would also be interested in learning more about staying at your residence for a couple of months at a time. No one could help me and I know your competitors do it!
