The room was a little beat up. Blinds in both the front and back of the room were broken and wouldn’t open. The room was clean though and the staff was great. I would like to try the side that has been updated. I’d stay there again. New pool is really nice too.

Definitely a hotel for parties…which is not us. The bed was comfortable and once the noise died down from the tiki bar we were finally able to sleep. Until that happened, though, all we could do is listen to the ruckus. Again, the room was nice, the bed was comfortable, staff was courteous, the food from the tiki bar was good, but we won’t be staying there again simply because of the noise.
