I love that it is pet friendly, location is very convenient and the staff are amazing. Our room was located on the main floor just across the pool and it was very convenient. However we had an issue with the clogged sink and bathroom exhaust is not working. The maintenance came and fixed the sink temporarily but it went back being clogged the after use. The exhaust was so noisy when it was turned on. I was terrified on the last day of stay as the switch on the door sparked fire, I think it was caused by the water dripping from the door. We reported did to the front desk and I took pictures of it if needed.
