Pros +
- Friendly staff, convenient location.
- We were around the corner from the pool. The staff was very polite and answered all my questions.
- The property was close to what we planned to do.
Cons -
- Uncomfortable bed, tiny pillows. No continental breakfast, for the price we paid for the room we should have had free breakfast.
- The floor/carpet was wet along the AC unit to the sliding door inward about 12-16 inches. It was stuffy with heavy moisture in the air. The AC was on the coldest setting. I did adjust it.
- The property was run down. We had to change rooms because the AC sounded like a dying mule.
