Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was tired looking. Fixes and small renos were not well executed (eg. Old Curtain tracks still visible, old oven cavity covered with chipped melamine) but the beds were comfortable and clean. The pool/hot tub area was lovely and well maintained. I was upgraded to a huge apartment which was nice. Location is excellent. Easy walking to everything.
