Very clean, Place needs to hire more help.
Pros:

Everything was clean and nice and tidy.

Cons:

Not enough staff on hand, the poor girl was checking in 20 people when we got there and she needed help. Secondly, when it is pay at property do not take money out until we get there. That was done before we got there. And my secondary room was paying with a different method when we arrived and told the property via text and said that was ok and there was notes on it. This is why you need more help.
