No more pool parties :(
6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
Huge dining space, comfy bed. Staff on front desk, particularly the Irish guy, were really friendly and helpful. Key is in an app so it's kinda easy. Table tennis tables were a great addition.
Bathroom wasn't clean, not enough washing machines or dryers for the demand. Whole place smelled like weed and lots of smoking in areas that weren't designated.
