I figured with all the shining reviews this location would be better than what I experienced. The room itself was great, bed was comfortable but the pillows much too soft.

The shower was easy to find a comfortable temperature, and the room had a couple of complimentary soaps but greatly lacking compared to other Hotels for less money.

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, but the room service food was really bad. Presentation of the food was nice but had next to no flavor.

My pool side room was over 200$, my in room meal was $40+ and if you want actually usable wifi you'll need to pay 15 dollars per day. If you are looking for a morning breakfast, that will be an extra $30+ for mediocre food.

I've been to many other Hotels that offer much much more in room services and quality of life items for extremely less out of pocket.

I wouldn't recommend this location unless you are really really pressed for time.
