"The staff was very friendly. There was live music at the restaurant. The room was pretty clean. Just a few things here and there like the transition strip from our room to the pool had some weird junk in it that could use some attention. The door to the sliding door was about to fall off- a quick screw driver job would make that work well. The bathtub looked like it used to be coated or something but has peeled off. Just little things that didn't hurt our stay at all, but we noticed. We enjoyed having a pool side room for sure. The pool is very nice- VERY deep, especially for my kids who are too big for the 'kiddie' pool but were too small for the bigger pool. They still had fun regardless. Breakfast was good. Lots of close parking so you don't have to walk far to your room. AC worked great."
