The hotel is very unique in design and decor. A fun and welcoming atmosphere. The pool and hot tub are great and the outdoor bar seating is very neat. For the fees charged, the room cleaning schedule could be improved. We had an issue with billing and it was handled professionally and promptly and was rectified with no issue.
