The Wifi was very iffy but I was able to connect at least once a day. The showers had some mold. The sliding door to the deck was very hard to open and close.... More

The staff was very pleasant and always helpful. The a/c in our room did not work well and added to the humidity, luckily the breeze coming through... More
