Hotel needs attention
Pros:

The rooms were large and updated. The staff was courteous and helpful..

Cons:

There are no elevators which can be a problem for those who have issues climbing up stairs with heavy suitcases. Thie pool is in poor shape and needs to be redone. The chairs and loungers are worn and need to be replaced. The hotel is good for one or two nights but not for an extended vacation.
