Pros:

Clean and good location

Cons:

Had to pay extra for parking

The only things missing were a microwave and an iron. It would have been perfect if those had been provided as well.

Pros:

Very fun and colorful. The custom soap details were a nice touch. The staff was nice. The speakeasy bar was a fun touch too!

Cons:

The carpet and other surfaces in our room were visibly dirty. I think the person who cleaned our room missed a couple items on their checklist. The suitcase stand was missing a screw. The pool area was nice, but the fun paint details on the ground in that area could use a touch up.

Beware of hidden charges
Pros:

Great funky design.

Cons:

Having paid about $145 a night for our stay, I was surprised to be informed on arrival, there was parking and amenities as extras. This equates to about $24 a night. Apparently the amenities include, the dressing gown, swimming pool and free popsicles. The pool you cannot use for a morning swim before 10am?? There is a bar on site and unfortunately for both nights of our stay we woken up by people returning to their rooms worse for the wear. Additionally the cleanliness of the bathroom and behind the beds and tv area needs addressing. The bed is not comfortable. I did challenge the extra charges on arrival but was informed it was clear on booking.com. To me it is not, I can see they charge for parking(why?) but I cannot see the amenities charge. I was told someone from management would contact me to address my concerns, but they did not, so felt compelled to write this review so others can see what the actual cost of their booking will be.

Place has potential but needs maintenance, rugs in rooms need replacement, pool area needs cleaning and maintenance, lis
Pros:

Cute property overall. Speakeasy and staff at speakeasy were wonderful. Speakeasy was definitely the highlight of the property and the reason I rated as high as I did. Pool was a good temperature.

Cons:

Property needs A LOT of maintenance. The chairs at pool area need cleaning as well as the pool itself. We had to use skimmer to clean the pool ourselves. There was only 1 pool float- a second had a leak. Paint is peeling almost everywhere (pics on site must have been taken when everything was fresh and new) and decals on walls need refreshing. The place has great potential but needs some TLC. My biggest issue was this: the first room we were assigned had a wet carpet. I stepped on it in socks and my socks became wet and dirty. I called office about it and the woman said she had to call housekeeping, they probably cleaned the carpet without informing her. She hung up without telling me, then texted me a new room # after asking if we had put anything on the beds already, used any toiletries or towels, etc. There was a movie screen at the pool in a state of disrepair and no movies were showing until June. That was definitely not in the property description.
