My family stayed for 8 days (Saturday to Sunday) and we only received a room cleaning service once on Wednesday after I called down to the front desk and requested it. Upon check out I mentioned it and the woman at the front desk shrugged it off and just said “okay thanks”.

Beautiful hotel, so so stay

Hotel is very nice. Beds are to low, toilet is to low, the floor level shower was poor. Water covered at least 1/2 the bathroom floor after a shower. For a Hotel like a Hilton we couldn't believe they didn't leave coffee and hot water for tea out. The hotel and its grounds are nice but it needs some updating.
