The room had black mold on the ceiling and the mattresses were thrift store quality in the first room. I changed rooms after seeing the black molf. That bathroom was better, but the toilet handle was falling off. There was gross stuff around some of the tub. But it was dark in the room. Loved that. I slept pretty good. The pool was heated to ablut 65 degrees. So it was pretty cold. The spa was nice.

Es caro para lo que ofrece. Ningún hotel te cobra por estacionarte en su propio estacionamiento, pero ellos si… $15 por la noche. Pero si algo le pasa a tu carro, no se hacen responsables… La habitación que nos dieron tenía una fuga considerable de agua. Nos cambiaron de habitación cuando ya habíamos desempacado. Alguna compensación por las molestias? …NO. El desayuno que ofrece es pobre. Todo es pan y azúcar. No hay huevos u otra variedad. Y la dispensadora de jugos y agua estaba descompuesta. Así que Café o Café. En general, no lo recomendaría ni volvería a este hotel.
