Westward Look Wyndham Grand Resort and Spa
The room was comfortable and clean. There was only 1 bathrobe in the room and despite requesting another we did not get one. The soundproofing in the room was very poor. We could clearly hear conversations from the room next door. This was very disappointing given the cost of the room.
