Pros:

Quite good location many options nearby for eating stayed 3 nights so that is great.

Cons:

The lady that checked us in was not very versed in the process myself and others were being double charged. It took us1 hour to get checked in. Kept saying that I had to pay even though I had a confirmation email showing I had paid. Once she finally figured out what to do she only set our room key for one night.

Comfortable home away from home.
Pros:

Easy check in and check out . Good location and pool with hot tub.

Cons:

The pool was very cloudy and the water was cold. We assumed it was a heated indoor pool. The water almost had a green tint to it.
