Good value, good location

In town for a quick 2 day weekend with a friend. Picked the handicapable 2 bed suite. The room was gigantic with plenty of space to lounge and spread our stuff out. Kitchenette looked solid but we didn't cook so can't comment on that. The beds were extremely comfortable and the bedroom AC vent provided ample ice cold air for quality sleeping conditions. The only two downsides were that the bedroom did not have overhead lights, only a small table lamp, and the bathroom shower assembly was quite subpar compared to how nice everything else was. The rest of the bathroom was just fine, though. Finally, everything on the 1st floor is great. Spacious workout area, ample pool/hot tub room, extremely large dining area and lounge, and breakfast was a good variety with all of the continental breakfast staples.

The room wasn't as clean as it has been in past visits. It didn't appear that the floor had been swept well and I wiped the shower down.
