Linda

Our experience overall was great. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only problem was the strong smell of chlorine in our room. We had a 3rd floor room with a balcony that overlooked the pool and dining area. My husband couldn’t tolerate the smell and spent several hours resting in the car. Other than that I would highly recommend this place.
