I liked it had a hot tub and pool beds were comfortable, and staff friendly. There were no clean towels in the pool area to use and when we pulled the shower curtain closed to shower, there was a dirty used washcloth hanging on the curtain. It was not a well cleaned facility in comparison to other expresses we have stayed at.
