2/10 Poor

Very poor management!

After driving 3 1/2 hours I arrived to a green pool and a vacant closed hotel. I called to see what exactly was going on and was told there had been a main water break. I received no call or notification. They apologized, really? How long ago was the break as I said the pool was Green? My family had to scramble to find other accommodations on a holiday weekend.
