The property is immaculate and all employees were fabulous. The room was immaculate. Was looking forward to using the pool until saw all the pigeons drinking from it and washing their tushes in it. Also, the fitness room is not kept air conditioned so my workout was brutal … had to finish early because way too hot. Rather unfortunate for the price paid.
