We’ve been coming to this place for over 25 years. We come back for the indoor pool. Appreciate the recent upgrades of laminate flooring. Also enjoy that it’s pet friendly and that they have a large open space to walk pets. Definitely coming back!

The property looks clean especially at the front desk. But inside the room, its dusty and dirty, wiping the countertop is extremely dirty. Coffee maker has white residue, fridge was really bad, food stains and water drips. Then microwave, disgusting with food overflow stains.. Jorge was nice to offer change rooms but we just stayed since I cleaned it with clorox wipes already.. Bed is clean somehow. Linens have holes though..
