“The location can't be beat! Close to everything but feels far away from the main road because of the way the resort is laid out.”
“Upon calling the service number, we were told to 'ask some of the exchange students staying to help us carry our things.'”
“The WiFi password was wrong and we couldn't reach anyone since it was past 5pm. We had to purchase more data since we were out of Canada.”
