Everyone else in my party liked it, but I found the burger to be underseasoned.

Didn't realize until last day that it was a lending library.

Mini Golf

Some of the illustrations for par purposes didn't quite match the holes.

Serenity Adult-Only Retreat

3 out of 5

Nice to not have kids around, but the adults were sometimes just as obnoxious. Wish we had a time limit on the pods to allow more people to use them.

Entertainment

Taj Mahal Main Lounge

3 out of 5

Wish the entertainers would realize the immobile tables make many of their attempts to get us dancing impossible. The '80s revue was fantastic.
