The stay was somewhat decent.
Pros:

I liked the indoor pool and complimentary breakfast.

Cons:

I didn’t like the condition the room was in when we checked in. The staff also had no control of the lobby, kids were playing right in front of the front desk, people were stealing food from the store inside and kids were blocking the front entrance.
