Pros:

The space was perfect for a family of 4. A lttle courtyard with table and seating which lead to the pool.
The kids loved it.

Cons:

The apartment was nice, but quite run down.
There was a ladder laying on the ground in the aprtment courtyard which could be a trip hazard.
We also had a pillow in the main bedroom with no cover slip.

Pros:

Plenty of parking, good location, reception staff were nice , very nice view from our room.

Cons:

We found other people belongings in the rooms drawers which made me wonder if the room was ever cleaned?. I could smell mould when i entered the room. Dishwasher started leaking as soon as I turned it on. I felt it was unsafe for me to turn on anything in the room after the dishwasher incident. The place needs to be much cleaner.
