Rooms are minimal and not in great condition. Need bathroom repair, paint, etc. The food was ok, but we were unable to get... More

Super location on Palm Beach. Pool is wonderful and the staff are great. Rooms not that fantastic but used for changing and sleeping. The Ala-cart restaurants did not disappoint. The buffet was great always for breakfast and lunch. Japanese and Italian venues were fantastic.
