"The room was clean, beds were comfortable. Only issue we had was locking the door fully. We had to push down on it to get the dead bolt to lock. Views were stunning, close to amenities, really enjoyed the tether ball poles. Breakfast was included, which was a nice perk. Everyone was friendly. Ice machine by our room was broken - not that big of a deal."
