Pros:

La petite terrasse privative en rez de chaussée même s'il n'y a pas de vue. Attention, l'établissement est aussi une salle de jeux avec machines à sous. La chambre est assez spacieuse.

Chainsaws at 7:30am!
Cons:

We were woken up at 7:30am by gardeners right outside our room with leaf blowers first thing. Then they moved onto chopping down 5 palm trees with a chainsaw!

It was the loudest most obnoxious sound to be woken up to and it continued right up until checkout. For about 2.5hrs on and off while we tried to fall back asleep

While all this was happening, a housecleaner busted in without knocking saw me standing there and quickly slammed the door.

I have tried to contact the property via bookings.com to get a full refund and have got no response.

If you're looking at staying here if recommend a room that's far away from trees 🤬

I have video proof of how loud it was
