Only complaint probably my fault. Previous resident set the alarm for 3 am that woke us up. Should have checked it before going to sleep. Guess it would have been nice to have the cleaning crew delete the alarm set.

The property was nice but our room overlooked the pool area and the patio door didn’t shut right or lock. Thankfully there was a bar to keep the door jammed shut. Traveling with my 2 teenage daughters it made me a bit uneasy.
