Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach
The hotel was really great. The service and staff were really helpful and courteous. The last day, housekeeping did not come to clean the room. The heated pool was a bit cold and would have preferred it to be warmer. Aside from that, it was a great resort. I would stay here again. It is family friendly ...
