Pros (+) I've stayed many times and quite like the facilities and the location, staff are always very friendly.

Pros (+) The room and the hotel was gorgeous and cute. Beds were comfortable.
Cons (-) Lots of families here- the "hot pool" which was a larger hot tub was meant for sitting and relaxing. It was being terrorized by a group of 10-12 year old demon boys.
