Clean, good location, lots of bass
Hotel was clean and location was good. My room was facing the pool/patio area and my room sounded like a nightclub until 11PM every night. It was not relaxing or comfortable.

Property was beautiful, room was perfect just wish it came with a refrigerator and microwave only reason I can’t give 5 stars. Restaurant attached had really great food. Only other complaint is it can be loud during nights it’s open until midnight could hear the music loud from my room. Other than that i had a great stay and appreciate the room service very much
