Poor experience
Pros:

The rooms were clean

Cons:

No cleaning of rooms without a specific request. No ability to book a taxi for guests. Breakfast was very basic, not edible, paper plates and plastic cutlery is not what I’d expect either. Had to ask for water and coffee refills for our rooms, as that wasn’t automatic either.

Nice Property, Fair Value, I'd Return
Pros:

Great experience overall! Nice property, nice pool, CVI restaurant was very pleasant

Cons:

No issues to report. Access can be confusing if you don't study the map before getting close. Parking was slightly annoying but not enough to affect the overall score.

Too expensive for what you get
Pros:

I had not travelled in 26 years and I wanted to treat myself to this place as it seemed nice and higher-end. I wanted a little pampering and luxury so I paid $2,200 and change to stay for 6 nights. They right away told me at check in that there is no housekeeping (??). I then noticed the cheapness. 1 ply toilet paper, 1 ply kleenix, I had to ask at the counter for everything I needed. In-room coffee and tea with cups ran out and I had to ask for more. I felt annoyed that I had to ask for things like a child. They didn't want to waste their products on their guests so they hide them and make us ask for everything. After 5 days my garbage was overflowing and I had to go to the lobby and empty it myself. For the money paid ~ I got ripped off. The service I received was MOTEL service not a luxury Hotel. I had to do all the work myself!

Cons:

No housekeeping - what the heck is up with that? For the money I paid - nearly $300 a night - I should have received housekeeping and fresh towels and linens every day but I did not. I may as well have been at home.

Comfy beds, good location. Not worth the price at all
Pros:

Good location to other amenities and a nice outdoor pool.

Cons:

Staff let a bunch of kids run up and down the hall screaming and yelling and trying to open doors. This was especially annoying as our door apparently didn’t close properly unless you really pushed it ( which we weren’t told ahead of time) so one of the kids literally ran into our room. We had to go ask the staff to get the parents to tell the kids to calm down, and even then they didn’t speak up and we had to say something ourselves, which caused its own issues with those parents as they didn’t like being asked to control their children.
The pool was also closed for a full day while we were there making that amenity unavailable to us.
