The blue strawberry gets an A for cleanliness and a C- for antiquated rooms. The cabinets in the kitchenette were from the 1050’s. Overall, the whole hotel is in need of a complete renovation! The air conditioning was as loud as a freight train, so loud that you could barely hear the TV. The pool gunite needs to be stripped and refinished as it’s flaking off in the pool.
