Room was basic, very loud air conditioning and hotel is run down with no upkeep and rust everywhere. For the rate they charge it should have nicer rooms. Around the property it’s run down, paint falling off and thin walls so can hear everything so don’t get much sleep - We left at 5am as had been up the whole night and paid $350 a night on a Thursday. You can stay at Viceroy for same amount

Great views, but awful beds

Everything was great except the bed. It was like sleeping on concrete. The grounds could have been a little cleaner, but the view from our room was spectacular! The distance to anything was impeccable!
