Travelled with family and small children, Travelled with group
Decent place to stay, our flight was an hour behind & we showed up at midnight to 4 workers behind desk, but 3 were “cashing out” or whatever the said so only 1 was helping. Rooms were ok, bathrooms had hair on counter & in sink. Bar & food over priced……PERIOD
