First we reserved two rooms in that hotel and when we got to the hotel after check in we found out that one of our rooms was dirty and no ready so instead of wait we went to have dinner then when we came back the room was ready and clean. The front desk lady was nice and helpful and the location of the hotel is great. We did the reservation in that hotel because the swimming pool for our great daughter but we found out over there that the pool was close for renovation (according to the front desk) ☹️ The breakfast was just very basic with different hot food choices. I’ll say that the hotel is just ok if you need a place to spend a night because is clean and in a good location but otherwise you can look for a better place for about same money.
