This property appeared to be very new and well kept. The breakfast was very nice and all the staff was pleasant and helpful. Therefore I hate to give a bad review, but we found a dead roach underneath our suitcase as we left. But our main complaint was that the air conditioner seems to be programmed to only cool to 74°, which was way too warm for us to sleep well, since we keep our bedroom AC at 65° at home.
