Liked the indoor pool. The second day we were there, they changed our towels and emptied garbage, but didn’t make bed or straighten up the room. We had a comfortable stay overall and would stay there again.

Lovely hotel with flowers all around. A small parking but did not have any issues with finding a spot. The airport is near and you will hear the airplanes in the morning and night. The staff was nice.
