Super!

Die Größe war super und sehr komfortabel. Es gab ein Entfeuchtungsgerät zusätzlich zur Klimaanlage. Es war alles super gegen Mücken geschützt. Der Pool war sehr schön und es gab schöne und saubere Liegen. Alles war sehr sauber. Das Personal war sehr nett und hilfreich bei der Planung der Aktivitäten.

Cons:

Nichts.

Sale…peut dépanner pour 1 nuit dans les Everglades
Pros:

La proximité avec le parc des Everglades, la dame de l’accueil sympathique

Cons:

La chambre était très sale, des touffes de cheveux des précédents occupants sur les murs de la douche, des cheveux dans les draps d’un des lits, le sol était sale, les lits grinçaient, il y avait de la condensation partout dans les chambres, on avait une petite serrure avec clé pour fermer notre porte on ne se sentait pas vraiment en sécurité, la chambre était très sombre on ne se sentait pas bien, les équipements faisaient vétustes notamment la machine à laver et le sèche-linge dans la buanderie, bref l’hôtel était glauque
Après avoir montré la photo des cheveux dans la douche on ne nous a pas proposé de nous envoyer quelqu’un ou un geste commercial…
