Check in man was very quick and answered all my questions even with ID issues but was able to verify my information no issue. Excellent extra information provided since we had two kids. Loved it :)

This day was just an overnight for me, my husband and our two grandchildren. My husband was going to a concert so we decided to bring the grandkids and let them stay and swim in your pool.
