The location is great and the property itself is very charming. Unfortunately, noise was a major issue during our stay. The walls are extremely thin—we could even hear the neighboring room snoring. The windows didn’t seal well, so noise from the pool carried into our room, and being located in the hallway meant frequent door slamming from other guests.
