Nasty, loud and scary at night.
Pros:

The bed was comfy

Cons:

Bathroom was nasty. The shower had not been cleaned in what looked like months. The floor had a layer of slim on it so you slipped every where you walked. Was right next to the pool and listened to kids play till 3 in the morning. TV didn't work. Hot water took a good 5 mins to get hot.
