Nice comfortable unit clean and practical for our 2 nights . Dryer wasn’t working and hung clothes on chairs on the balcony which flew off during the night . Second night was unsettling.. loud people on top of us and then evacuation alarm next door had us up from 3 am . Not Oaks fault but wasn’t the best stay I’ve had. Otherwise nice 😊

Loved the roomy room and mine was only a two night stay - there was no housekeeping but I kind of liked that I could just leave things as I wanted till next day and didn't really need housekeeping anyway. Great view and pool was nice and refreshing

Good hotel

Good, no tv in second bedroom though all the plugs there for it. Second bedroom windows look into public hallway, so it’s a very dark place. Hot water was restricted to just lukewarm, so impossible to have a hot shower or do dishes without boiling a jug. TVs were old and had channels there that weren’t paid for so unusable. Otherwise a quiet building that was adequate for a short stay.
