"DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS PLACE!!! I booked and paid for a room 2 months prior. Got there they had no reservation or confirmed booking and refused to honor based on the itinerary from Expedia. We called a few days prior to arrival, the phone number listed is unreachable. it was a busy weekend there and ended up having to book a smaller room with them costing more money on site. The pool is not Operational either and the rooms have serious mosquitos. They fleeted the room at 11pm at night."
