It’s clean and service is good but the parking spots can hardly hold a big car. When you come back to the hotel you will have a hell of a time finding a parking spot. The parking underneath is a nightmare you can easily have or cause an accident.For the price of the room it’s not worth booking!. Thanks!

The place was great, very clean and loved the separate bedroom for the teenagers. Only thing I didn't like was that the pool did not have umbrellas with the "free" chairs. In order to be covered, you had to rent a chair with cover for $35 a day or the covered family seciton for $75 a day, which I thought was weak after having spent over $2000.00 for a 4 night stay.
