Was very disappointed with this property. Room was not maintained well! Sink was clogged, toilet did flush properly and air conditioner did not work in room! Difficult to get dinner reservations they claim they were always booked and full!

We had to move our room twice due to Air conditioning Unit Leaked Water all over The floor. When going to the dusk it took them 2 hours to get us another room.. The man named angel did not want to give up Another room. Said that we would have to pay $35A night For a another room. I asked to talk to a supervisor that is when angel decided that maybe there was another room. He finally found us Another room When we went there was occupied by people. This happened twice. I asked to speak to his boss and the matter was handled Quickly. When speaking to other Customers there They had told me that they had problems with their toilets And having water leak in their rooms as well. The rooms all smelled mustyMustard.

I was incredibly disappointed in my stay here. The accommodations were covered in mold and when I brought this to the attention of the property, they would not offer a refund. In addition, the towels at both the hotel and the pool were all ripped and dirty. I will not stay here again.
