"Very nice and clean. I was there in a low season so few people and lots of rain. Rooms look new with digital controls. 24 hour drinks and food. The only problem is for smokers, few places to smoke so you have to really walk looking for one. The employees and guests who were there before told me that you could smoke in the bar before and other places before, it’s like being back in NY."
