Honestly a great stay and very clean. Only thing that could be better is the air conditioning. The rooms have small built in units that barely work, which resulted in our room staying in the mid 70s at all times. After showers, the room would jump up into the 80s. Not a huge deal, or a dealbreaker as the stay was still excellent.
