Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Rented family suite. The master bedroom smelled like pee. The kitchen had no cooking pot or utensils. The television didn’t work and internet was not available. The hot tub was barely warm. The staff was told and didn’t really seem to care and did nothing. The most angering thing is they knew about the issues when I checked in and didn’t inform anyone.

Overall very satisfied. Room was very clean , nice location. Loved the full kitchenette so I could do simple cooking instead of buying foods every day. Staff was very friendly and willing to help. The only thing I wanna mention as sort of negative feedback was one of the washer in the laundry room was broken and didn’t get repaired during my entire stay( almost 2 weeks). So there were busy times that the people had to wait for h the turn depending on the other working machines. Other than this, I would definitely to go back.
