Room was clean but our tv did not work properly (very old, had lines through the screen). We liked the pool but they do host swimming lessons there which cut into our enjoyment of the space. Overall an okay stay.

The property and rooms were very nice and clean. The cleaning staff did an excellent job. My only concern was that the bathtub was very slippery when wet and there was no bathmat to put down. A textured bathtub floor would be another good addition.
