service area noise deactivated room key
My room faced the resort. The view was alright but I could hear noise from what I believe was the service area early in the morning. one evening I returned to find my room key deactivated and I had to walk all the way back to the lobby to get it fixed. This was quite inconvenient after a long day.

Slightly Underwhelming Stay

excessively loud music repetitive food choices
The gym had good equipment. It included several treadmills and weight machines.
The music in the bar was excessively loud during check-in. It made it difficult to hear the staff, so I needed to ask them to repeat themselves several times. I found breakfast to be repetitive. The food choices were the same each day, which quickly became boring (especially since I stayed for several days).
