It’s okay. The soap they had were Dove, but in reality these were not dove products inside. You can very well tell as there was rust on bottles of soap and conditioners. The doors to the room looked like it was broken into.

The hotel was nice with a great breakfast and pool area. Parents- watch your kids by the pool and make sure they walk. It gets REALLY slippery when wet!
