Decent Stay, but the common Kitchen facilities was a Letdown The on-site staffs were the only 5-star part of this hotel—very friendly and helpful. The room was basic but as expected for the price. The bed was okay, but horrible lumpy pillows. Privacy was lacking since the rooms overlook the pool and are very close together. The biggest issue was the common kitchen—it was dirty, disorganized, and lacked essentials like plates, cups, cutlery, and glasses. There were plenty of pots, pans and had a microwave and fridge, but without basic items, it was frustrating. We suggest the hotel provide these essentials with a deposit system for guests. When traveling, you don’t want to buy kitchenware just for a short stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room is in a bad state of disrepair. They do NOT provide adequate amenities (no shampoo, no cups or glasses, no coffee, etc). The room is also not what I would call clean by any stretch. There was mold in the bathroom and dirt of the shelves. The bed is extremely hard and the pillow are cheap little foam one. They do have a water cooler at the front, but you need your own cups, glasses or bottles to get some. Not a place I would ever consider staying again.

Diamond in the ruff!

We loved it. Eddie the front desk manager won hour heart on the first evening we checked in. We noticed that the bathroom floor of our unit was very wet – the toilet was leaking. We brought it to his attention & within 10 minutes he had a new water cable hooked up and the drip/leak was fixed. Awesome! Then he saw our camping cooler – and without even asking he brought a small refrigerator into our room – once again noticing and taking the initiative – just amazing! We would definitely be happy to stay there again – the outdoor kitchen is a nice touch – Only one thing to improve on add more glassware and more silverware. The owner Juan, Was delightful. We can see why his employees are so wonderful – the apple does not fall far from the tree. The place just needs a little bit of TLC – a little paint. Thanks KC & Cindy
