limited selectionlukewarm dishes
The dinner buffet was disappointing. The food quality was not what i expected. I found the selection limited and some dishes were lukewarm, a HUGE letdown. The parking situation was also frustrating. Spaces were hard to find and often quite distant from the entrance. This added unnecessary stress to my arrival and departure.

The restaurants were always fully booked, so it was never possible for me to make a reservation. Also the entertainment options were limited. The spa required an extra fee and did not include a sauna. I found the lack of available dining and limited activities disappointing.
