8/10 Good
"The pool temperature was way too cold. No one was enjoying it. Everyone around the pool was complaining about this. Room was nice, maybe a little bit more detail cleaning is recommended. Self parking is $30 a night even when the rain forest cafe costumers use the same parking lot, I don't think that's fair. Everything else was really nice, i loved that my chihuahua baby was welcomed and that there's an specific space for her to run freely without a leash, in the back of the building. If they fix the pool temperature, I will be back for sure. 😊"
