Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
pros: large pool that is never too crowded to find a chair no loud music at the pool, older crowd just relaxing location is great; in the middle of the strip room cleaning apparently included; we found out by walking in on a maid in the room large comfortable king bed pool security were friendly and always brought us an umbrella when we asked cons: pool didn't seem to be heated room pretty dated and could use some modernization. needs a deep cleaning, paint job, new furniture. i thought the shower glass was frosted but it was just dirty. mold in the shower. no shower caddy for toiletries. bring shower sandals, the water backs up a bit. a bit loud at night since it's next to a club but it didn't bother us and we knew about it i'd say it's a solid 7.5/10 due to the location, pool, and atmosphere. would be a 9/10 with some modernization of the room.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is beautiful. Check-in was quite easy. The condo was very clean and had everything we need. The bed was very comfortable. My only minor complaint was the cooking utensils could have been a little better. The frying pans were warped, and there was no proper fry turner. If you are not cooking, you will have no issues.
