The room was so clean and neat ! Tv and WiFi were great. The shower and bathroom were very clean, however the shower head was very confusing. And the room caused me and my friend to have a reaction. But overall it was a very good room for the price !!

I have been staying here almost every year for over 12 years. Most places get older and worse This place gets better and better. Great management, great staff. All rooms are good ( COULD use a bit more coffee) but pool side is the killer! Bernard is always VERY welcome 🤗
