Good hotel. Small pool, only suitable for kids but that's okay. Third floor room with balcony means noise from nearby air conditioner units on building below were heard overnight. Sheets on bed are not something were used to, bit annoying in the middle of the night when I'm trying to get comfy. Tucked in sheets all need taken out, meaning everything gets untucked. Enjoyed our stay, would come back. Above issues are not a deal breaker.
