Quinn

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff was friendly and rooms were equipped with amenities. However, once the sun went down we realized our room was infested with cockroaches. This was due to a gap under the front door. Our stay was during the middle of summer, but this situation could have been easily avoided with proper maintenance of the building. After reading more reviews I realized this was a common experience. It did indeed ruin our stay.

clean nice room. Excellent pool. We liked the car port ... other than the surface was sandy. Easy to walk to a couple of dinner options ... but don't wait too late as things close early.
