8.4/10 Very Good! (163 reviews)

The people were all welcoming and kind. The room was updated, modern and very quiet in spite of the noisy traffic not far away. The pool was not usable because they were treating it and the attendant didn't tell us this until I went to ask for a towel. It was not clean in time for us to use it before checking out. It would be nice to post this or let us know before we lathered up with sunscreen and almost jumped in the pool.
