It’s all about location, and they have it. But they cemented over the pool and took away the breakfast… they still charge so much and keep taking away things… we had a kitchen unit and we had to bring all our own plates etc…the only good thing is location

Beds are old. Towles smelled like they were left in washer for a day or two. Both Room locks were brocken. Bathroom lock broken and bad customer service. Housekeeping didnt clean our room after our 1st night, so I went to complain and at least get towels. They blamed it on us for not being able to open the room door when we were out and about.
