Such a cute little spot! We weren’t in the room much put it definitely had a cute vibe! My only suggestion would be to get a firmer mattress. It felt like I was sinking into the bed and hurt my back a little bit but over all, great experience!

This is not a 3 star hotel or resort. It’s a dirty, run down motel on a busy street in a sketchy area. Our room had a dead roach under the bathroom sink & towels with dirty handprints- even when they were replaced. Dirty curtains & walls. The A/C so loud it was difficult to sleep. Spent condom wrapper on the ground in front of our room. Wore flip flops in the shower. The only nice part is the pool area that appeared to be maintained well & had nice seating.
