Absolutely loved the room, balcony, and ambiance. Wish there were more dinner meals on the menu, and that it could have had more privacy, but overall loved this place!

Walls are paper thin. Could hear everything from next room. Even talking to each other in our room it was loud and echoing. TV was hard to navigate to find normal channels to watch.

correct room number key given?
I was given room 224, and when I arrived in the room, there were linen sheets rolled up in a big ball in the corner. Also, the furniture around the room was stacked on top of the desk top. After noticing that the main door and microwave door were not avail to me, II could only assume that the new carpeting was installed w/ the remodel. Considering not coming back for my monthly stay.
