Pros (+) It was clean. The service was great. The staff was great
Cons (-) The photos really made it out to be much nicer than it was. The rooms are small and the pool is way less chic than I had anticipated. It was fine for a night but my wife would have made us find a better hotel for we stayed any longer.
