Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Did not meet expectations. The rooms are noisy, you can hear everything in the hallway. The beds are not comfortable and lumpy, with rough sheets and pillows that appear smaller than a standard size. Pool area outdoors is small. Beach access is very rocky. Limited seating outside. Property is to be non-smoking but this is not enforced. Would not stay again and do not recommend.
