We love staying here. The rooms were clean. The staff was amazing especially Francisco. He was great and I’d liked that the pool was clean. I wished that the pool was heated because it was cold but other than that it was amazing. The hot tub is definitely a plus.

I used to stay at this hotel years ago and it was decent, but now after this stay I would never book there again. The beds are uncomfortable, but the pull out sofa mattress is absolutely horrible. You can feel the springs. The worst part was there were cockroaches in the room. I killed two of them that I saw. The room was spacious which is why I booked there, but I will never book there again. That place has gone way down hill. The staff is great. If they kept up on maintenance of the property and replaced mattresses, it would be a good place to stay. There are no problems with the staff at all.

We experienced faulty equipment and amenities such as a burned out balcony light, a broken shower drain stop, but the item that crashed out Easter Holiday weekend was the broken fridge. Food poisoning followed the next day . We checked out on Sunday and informed the hotel after checkout. We requested maintenance to check all fridges and are awaiting a call back to remedy the experience. We have stayed in this hotel for about 10-12 times since 2020. Nice staff, quiet spot.
