Retirement vacation

It was a vacation traveling for our retirement. We stayed one night. We had a little wait checking with they had trouble with the computer. But the check in host bought us a drink for having us wait. The room was nice with the big bath tub. We ate dinner in the restaurant, they were short handed and the waitress seemed to be new. She brought the wrong bottle of wine but if was too late because we started drinking it and notice It was sweeter than we like. The food was decent. The restaurant was a little disappointing due to the cost of the room.

Just okay. Peaceful property but could do without the doggie bag station just outside our patio. Resented paying valet for a car parked 50 feet in front of the entrance. Dinner was excellent; server got lost when we asked for a wine list. Bartender and maitre’d lost their mind when I merely asked to take two cocktail glasses in plain sight to my room. I was admonished by both and told to call room service next time. Otherwise fine.
