Over all a great experience

Liked:The location was perfect and the staff was amazing. Carlos the bartender was very personable and helped me and my husband with some not so touristy lounges and they were so much fun.
Disliked:With the amount that owe paid for 3 nights, you would think there would be a microwave. I was very shocked about this. We went to eat at multiple locations and couldn't bring our left overs back as there was no where to reheat heat it.

Other wise great experience and I would book again.

Liked:The property was in a good location. We loved it. Access to a lot of places we wanted to visit. The hotel breakfast is great and we received at $27 discount towards breaks for two, each got $27 per day.
Disliked:I did not like that they offer a $15 discount on any purchases but you needed to add it to your room booking and discount to be taken later. Our room was not cleaned in the second day, we had to ask for change of towels but the response was good and there after the person came to clean the room the following day. We asked for early check in it was not available but even during the normal check in time the room was not available.
