The pool was the only best thing, I had to clean under the bed as daughter spilt food and cockroaches come out from under the bed, the room had a smell and found out after a shower the shower leaks into the room and looked like it had been for awhile , my daughter could not use the bed near the window as the glass louvres didn't close all the way so I did not trust them for safety and kept my daughter in bed with me also we had to change rooms as added an extra night to our stay the 1st room had plates and stuff but the next room had none at all, the motel needs a good clean up and some repairs done.
