The hotel itself is nice. The surrounding areas aren’t the greatest. Our room was unfortunately facing the pool/bar area and it was VERY noisy. The beds were not comfortable. There was also cleaning products left in the bathroom when we arrived to our room and my little one is the one who found it.
