This is an older renovated hotel and they have done a great job..the room was very nice..the pool was like older pools were, with a real deep end..at first it seem small..but the way it is shaped it is fine..I loved it. Small lobby , yet fits the atmosphere of the place & they set up a breakfast there with cereal & pastries..and yogurt with fresh fruit. I will definitely stay there again.
