cramped spa disorganized laundry service

the spa was somewhat underwhelming mostly due to its size it felt cramped. additionally the breakfast buffet though extensive lacked some finesse it was a little too chaotic for my liking. i also overheard another guest complaining about a mix-up with their laundry service it seemed a bit disorganized. it just wasn't the seamless experience i anticipated.
