The room was very good. I enjoyed the pool and the location of the hotel to everywhere I needed to be. What was a sore point is the staff. No one says the basic courtesy to us. Good morning is basic yet none says it. They walk right pass you even before cleaning your room it's not even said. Please teach your staff basic courtesy. I will not visit spark again.
