We had a great stay, it was clean, tidy, friendly staff, and a clean outdoor pool. The parking lot lights are bright and on all night long, but the curtains worked well to keep the light out. Very quiet, except for our neighbours shower, we could hear it every time but couldn’t hear them at all. Would stay again!
