Great location for Eden Park
Pros:

Great location for Eden Park, staff were very kind

Cons:

RIGHT outside our bedroom window was the huge pump for the pool that went almost all night and was so loud we barely got any sleep and also the big bright light in the foyer shon right in our window.
The fan in the bathroom didn't work and the window was either wide open or had to be closed shut.
The shower around the bottom was also very dirty in the corners
