Decent Stay, Some Disappointing Aspects

service quality alcohol availability
The Salt and Pepper restaurant was not good. The staff did not seem motivated, and service quality was poor. I saw old food deposits on the tablemats. The lounge was also a letdown because alcohol was only available for a limited time (between 6 PM and 8 PM). This should be clearer to avoid customer disappointment.

i found the staff friendly and cooperative. the location had an amazing creek view, and the rooms were clean, spacious, and luxurious. i received an upgrade to a suite, which enhanced my trip a lot. the breakfast buffet included delicious food at a reasonable price. the pool, spa, and gusto restaurant provided fabulous experiences.

unhappy staff poor cleanliness
The salt and pepper restaurant wasn't great, the staff seemed unhappy, and cleanliness wasn't a priority. tables were wiped but not disinfected. tablemats had old food. also, gusto promised a lot but the food quality was poor. the lounge alcohol hours are restrictive. Only 6 pm to 8 pm. it's disappointing when you expect a relaxing evening with a drink and can't have one!
