Not bad

You get what you pay for, not bad. When you walk in the AC is off so it’s hot but it cooled really fast with the AC unit.

Went down to ask for more towels because we were only given one of each size and was handed one body towel. I asked for more and he said that was all they had. Need to invest in towels.
