The property itself was beautiful. Check in was a nightmare. Was directed to go next door with a note, went next door, found another note. Called the number on the note, was told they didn't handle check INS for that property. They directed us to a third property, who made a phone call or 2 and directed us right back to the first property. All of this at 2AM. Went to check out, office was locked. Went back in the room, dropped the key and left.

The indoor pool and water park were closed. Nothing said they weren't available when booking. Our TV in the room had lines across the screen and a message to contact the cable provider. The bath vent fan didn't work. Pictures on the wall had cracked glass, balcony door has locks, but there's nothing on the frame for the lock to work. We had to pick up our room key at another hotel, but i was called and given instructions- no problem . Great view!

Gem in the north

The bed was perfect. Firm and no roll to the center. Definitely not a mattress from a box! Great water pressure in the shower. Room is very spacious and fabulous vinyl plank floor.

Wish they would’ve been more attentive to guests and the pool areas. The trash piled up a bit on our stay. Other than that the room was clean and a great deal for a long term trip
