Guest Experiences & Tripadvisor Reviews
Overall Rating: (3.0/5) ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Based on 858 reviews
I) Kelley B ⭐⭐ (01-04-2025)
I was really disappointed with the condition of our unit. The furniture was old and broken, the carpet was filthy, and there were even dead bugs on the floor. The kitchen cabinets wouldn’t close properly, and when I reported the issue with bugs (including roaches), no one ever came to check.
There was no TV in the bedroom, and when I asked, they dropped off a tiny one at my door—but the unit was so outdated that there weren’t any cable outlets to even connect it. Overall, it felt neglected and poorly maintained. Definitely not the experience I was hoping for.

ii) Bruce B ⭐⭐⭐ (05-12-2024)
From the outside, the resort looks nice, but the inside tells a different story. The maintenance is lacking, and the furniture is far from comfortable—definitely not ideal for a week-long stay.
If you’re staying on the first floor, be prepared for noise from the units above. Overall, this is just a basic accommodation—fine if you’re okay with that, but don’t expect anything beyond the bare minimum.
