Property was really nice all over. The bathrooms were small would be the only real issue with the property I would have. We had four in the room and it was a one person bathroom with not much room for one, however I know the property is older so I’m sure that’s the reason. I didn’t like the “destination” charge of $30 per day that no one mentioned until checkout, for use of the amenities like restaurant and pool? Never heard of that before, there was no option for not using those amenities and no mention of it before the stay. I don’t like sliding in an extra $30 per night !
