Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location was amazing, right in the middle of town. Staff were responsive when we had issue.
Negative: The room was very small, and very basic. The air conditioning did not do much to cool the room. We lost power to our room, which the staff did promptly respond to- but had us quite unsettled and concerned. Overall it was not what was expected. To be honest my expectations were not higher to begin with but I was still disappointed.
