Left a lot to be desired

The hotel had no computer at check in so they never received our reservation. Even though we booked when there were 6 rooms left on Expedia (we booked 3) they said they had no rooms. They offered us an apartment which we took because we had no option at that point but it gave us a very mediocre stay and a vehicle search by the guard at the gate coming out, which was so unnecessary. There was no breakfast when we came down at 9:00 and they didn’t get any more for us. All in all it was less than mediocre and I would not recommend this place.

This propert was a perfect fit for me. The rooms were clean and spacious, the staff was courteous at all times, the food was good, and the outside area was pristine. And the price was very reasonable. I hope to stay here again.
