Pros (+) Clean, staff is very friendly and helpful. The pool is a decent size and mostly kept clean. The rooms are a great size and so are the bathrooms. The refrigerator is a great size for a family of 5 and everything available to cook with are very well kept and clean.
Cons (-) The elevator doors shut too fast not as in it doesn't give time to get in but that when it goes to shut it's faster then most and you kind of need a bit of strength to push the part that makes it open again. As long as your careful it should be ok, we made sure that we made our toddlers and their grandma go first while we held it open just in case
