4/10 Fair

Hair was in both queen beds, room was very dim and the waterpark that they so proudly talk about on their website has been closed since the beginning of 2026. Beds were comfortable but I put a beach towel that I bought down on my bed to sleep on top of because the sheets didn’t feel clean and they were very worn looking.

Price was very reasonable. Room and facility were clean and well maintained. The WiFi was actually not connected to the internet so it did not function as WiFi. Bed was very comfortable.
