Absolutely ridiculous! I booked a jacuzzi suite for Valentines Day, a month+ in advance. When we arrived our room had no jacuzzi. One of the busiest weekends of the year for Gaylord so there were no rooms anywhere. We were forced to stay in a room I didn't reserve. Then because I spent so much time at the front counter checking in and trying to figure out how this happened, we were late getting to our skiing excursion. Very disappointed. Feel like I was taken for a ride by an absolute scam of a setvice. I will NOT be using Orbitz EVER again.

online said they had an outdoor hot tub and when I got there the staff said they did not have one. Also the key cards did not like to open doors even after being re programmed twice. went to get breakfast at 8am they were already out of cream cheese when i had asked staff where it was located. Good stay other than those few things.

It was a good time had a big room. Was mostly clean tried to make the pullout mattress work for the my daughter and was disgusted by the mattress so I just had her sleep on the couch which was fine. The pool was clean just a little cold for our liking. The breakfast was good. Was busy but had a hard time keeping up. The person running it tried to close it about 20 minutes early which kinda pushed everyone away. But overall a good place to stay
