Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was decently clean but I've definitely seen it cleaner. The breakfast was not worth the money. Go to one of the restaurants in the area. The staff kept saying sorry for the inconvenience of the pool being closed all weekend, my room being oddly moist even when I had the air on 67° and my mini fridge had a bunch of ice buildup.
