I loved our first floor patio room looking out onto the courtyard full of trees and pool. However, the bed cover and rug were a bit too shabby and worn out for it to feel luxurious. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Restaurant served very tasty food.

Well, bedding was super weird, 2 standard pillows, that were not of hotel quality, comforter on bed looked like something from a used garage sale. No washcloths. Some metal thing under bed that was strange& loud. You could hear everything from other rooms like they were in your room& charged a security deposit upon check in. For the price spent this should have been a 2 *only and know more $180/night. Ridiculous price for this room! Disappointed Expedia!
