"There were two issues.
1- Our room 311 had an odor coming for somewhere. Maybe it was the HVAC or the carpet.
2- The hot tub outside by the pool had so much bleach chemicals in it. It burned you eye, tender skin, dried your skin and ruined our swim suits. My girlfriend suit is lighter from the chest down."
"I booked the two bedroom two bath unit. It was exactly as expected from the photos on the listing. This was a very comfortable unit that I could've stayed in a week or more very comfortably. A full kitchen with everything you need and having two bathrooms was nice. Front desk staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. I would stay again for sure."
