Traveled with 3 kids, stayed in the family suite- A/C was so cold during these hot summer days absolutely perfect. Food was great, attentive staff, quite location. Phenomenal access to all the hot spots within walking distance ! Would highly recommend ! We also booked the airport transfer through them directly. The driver was absolutely amazing from beginning to end book the same driver on the way back would highly recommend arranging transportation directly through them.
