Was extraordinarily noisy throughout the entire night-on premises and off. I left a day early. Room was clean but powerful smell of cleaning products. A/C made a banging noise every time it turned on and ran very noisy. The staff was pleasant.

The staff was great. The location was absolutely phenomenal. The pool was clean and sunshine over it all day. The rooms are nothing to write home about and they could use new mattresses but it was clean ! Location and cleanliness is given 5 stars. I would stay again.

The staff was very very rude and not accommodating. We arrived room was dirty and the A.C was NOT WORKING .. Then finally they switched our room. To an even worse room the bed was legit broken in half & that A.C did not work. The lady in the front was so rude and yelling at me. The room sheets were filthy and hair in showers
