Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Our last night there was a screaming child running around outside our room between 1130PM and12:30 AM and than continued to run wild on the balcony on the 2nd level which went on for another half an hr. We werent sure if they were guests or not but it was a very unpleasant end to our stay. I commend the housekeeper who we believe lives there, that came out and tried to difuse the situation the best she could. Other than that everything was enjoyable. We would have liked more service with towels, we had to find them a few times to removed used ones and get new ones. We were there for 6 nights.

When we reached to the front office, the lady in the front had attitude and when I asked for a blanket- she was like “why”, unprofessional and need to improve customer service skills for paying customer.
