8/10 Good
"Room was clean and very well presented upon arrival. Pool was fantastic size and conveniently located near room. There was also a small playground on site which was great for the kids. We had daily housekeeping but they only changed the towels beds weren’t made and floor wasn’t cleaned and the restaurant was undergoing renovations so we weren’t able to use it."
