I enjoyed my stay there. Everyone was friendly from the staff to the people staying there. Everything was walkable very nice place to walk things to do inside and outside. There’s a theme every night so there was something to do if you run out of ideas. I wouldn’t mind staying there again.

Very few parking Lots and parking in general is very expensive. You couldn‘t open the windows in the private 6-Bedroom and the Air-Condition didn‘t work so the air was very bad. The Room is very small with zero space for any cloth. There was mold and dirt on the windows. No soap or towels in the room.
