Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My stay here was just OK. The room was nice but much smaller than an average hotel room. The bed mattress sunk in and seemed worn out so sleeping wasn’t my favorite part of this trip. But the balcony was large & spacious. It was mentioned welcome drinks are given upon arrival, however it was misleading as 1) you had to ask 2) the concierge mentioned it wasn’t an alcohol beverage. However, he was nice enough to ask the bartender to make us margaritas anyways. Overall would rate this experience 3 out of 5.
