Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Some amenities in the room did not work, like refrigerator and a lamp. Also saw sawdust in a closet since the property is so new. Everything felt like it was rushed together and not fully tested before renting out the room. The pool was not really heated nor did the room heating/cooling work very well.
