No elevators…offsite parking for an additional 40.00 a night…photos showed a stand up shower in my room but I ended up with a tub…heavy construction exactly at 7am on-site…location was nice…all rooms are right up against pool and if your looking for some peace and quiet this is definitely not the place. 1st and last time we will stay here.
