"Pool and spa were great our apartment was clean. You could not connect the Tv to our Netflix was coming up that there is no internet connection so that was really disappointing. Distance to the main street was only a 15 minute walk. Only disappointment was, when we checked in we were told that check out was changed from 11.00 am to 10.00 am and world not extend the check out to 11.00am even though check in is at 3.00pm and they had plenty of time to clean after we checked out."
