We picked this hotel for the pool/ swim area. When we got there we were told the pool was closed due to maintenance. For the next 3 months. We were not told this when we booked, they were not caring when we checked in; when we said that's why we wanted to stay here. VERY UPSET. We have stayed here in the past and had no issues. But this time. Very disappointing.
