The beds are wonderfully soft with just enough firmness and the room is near and clean. Only two downsides are the private patio furniture has a massive quantity of spider webs so I won't be sitting out there and I have counted 3 mosquitoes in the room that I cant seem to kill so I have ended up with a five or six mosquito bites already.
