Pros:

The shopping near by
Ali the receptionist ẃ very helpful

Cons:

No slippers provided asked several times for room to be cleaned 2nd of 4 day stay took 5 calls for someone to come. Even then did not vacuum the room. One of the beds was unpretentious which made sleeping disfigured when i complained no action was took. Breakfast was mediocre same everyday. Variety would have been nice.

Pros:

The pool was plus but it was almost as hot as the hot tub! There was also rude guest at the pool, and the pool is deep 9 ft and there is never a life guard on duty.

Quiet and clean rooms, also a large , warm pool.
Pros:

The kids loved the large and warm pool.

Cons:

We had 4 people staying with us, but they only gave us enough towels for three people. Also, I didn’t like having to ask for extra wrist bands for the pool, because again they didn’t give us enough for the number of guests we paid for. Also, I wasn’t a big fan of having to wear a wrist band for the pool.

Pros:

The room was clean.

Cons:

The breakfast wasn’t anything special. The French toast was hard. I expected a little bit better than a normal continental breakfast for the price. The back doors from the parking lot would let you in except for one.

A simple one night stay.
Pros:

If your going to have an extra $50 dollar charge for "Security" reasons or something make sure to highlight that on their website/booking.com. I was expecting to only pay for the night all together at $154, but hey a surprise extra $50 dollars security charge made me go over budget. thx
