Extreeeemely comfy king size bed, bedding and pillows. Quiet at nite (pool facing room fairly loud w happy children during the day). Nice variety at breakfast of eggs, delicious oatmeal, and yogurt for our vegetarian diet. Really long, dark hallways to rooms were slightly off-putting. Upwards of $20 per day fee (plus tips) for valet parking was a drag, but I guess that’s convenience.
