The rooms were immaculate and very well-appointed. The bed was especially comfortable. The food was wonderful. I especially enjoyed the breakfast buffet with its generous variety. The staff were helpful and always available. They were courteous at all times.

I found the pool area lacked a bit of character. The beach had red flags constantly, so swimming was not an option there. I noticed some wear and tear in the hallways. The carpets need some attention.

initially, the room smelled quite musty, like old gym socks. it was hard to ignore. after a room change, the replacement had a bathroom light out. housekeeping missed a few spots. I found a bottle cap left on a shelf. these details detracted from the experience..
