  • Clean: Rating of 4.4 out of 5

    "The room was very clean and the bed was wonderfully comfortable." source Hotels.com

    "\n\nAfter having one mildly refreshing swim in the murky pool, a day later we thought our luck was in as it was being cleaned - however that was our first and last swim as it took 3 days to clean." source Travelocity

    "Turns out itÂ’s virtually brand new." source Expedia

    "Very comfortable, clean, great pool." source Hotels.com

  • Service: Rating of 4.3 out of 5

    "It was the bed and the service that made the difference at this hotel." source Travelocity

  • Location: Rating of 3.5 out of 5

  • Room: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "\nThe room was beautiful; however, the tile floors proved to be extremely noisy. We were on a ground floor room, and in the morning were awakened by someone above us walking back and forth with shoes on." source Travelocity

    "If you get a room in one of the new buildings it is nice, We were in the upstairs of one of the old buildings. They called it a delux room with two Queens." source Expedia

    "I stayed in a "historical room". I was worried that it would lack the ammenities newer rooms had." source Expedia

    "Also, the air conditioning in the room didn't work at all. So come 10pm at night, we had to switch rooms." source Travelocity
