Generally okay but room had an odd smell

Customer service was good. Room had a strong ammonia smell. Front desk staff responded immediately but explained it was just the cleaning products. A bit grimy but generally comfortable. Location was in a decent area. Good breakfast- and dining area was clean and up to date.

The outdoor pool is great, however, it is located down a long steep stairway which presented a problem for us older folks as well as our youngest granddaughter in her stroller.
