So this was a very nice place to stay. The restaurant next door has the best mexican food we have ever had. Within walking distance. The pool was nice and warm, great for little ones. The room was clean except for a razor that was left in the tub from previous people. Which to me says the tub wasnt cleaned. However it still smelled clean and looked clean. The beds were a bit hard, but overall i would give a 4 out of 5 rating.

Easy check in, needed to ask for linens for pull out couch, but that is the only complaint. The lady that was working the front desk at check in was very friendly, always had a smile on her face and was apologetic if there was any minor inconvenience (such as the sheets).

The staff were terrific!! I can’t say enough how nice, kind and accommodating they were. Tammy at the front desk during the nights was the best!! We loved the late check out. The room was so clean. Didn’t wake up early enough for breakfast but I’m sure that was great too. See you next year!!
