It was built in 1946 and that shows. The heater/air conditioner was very noisy. The tennis courts were in good shape except for one.the weather was cold so we didnt use the large pool. The kitchen was too small in the studio unit.

The truth is that it was not the place I expected, the property is very deteriorated, my 1-bedroom studio room had a rather unpleasant musty smell, the bed and furniture were very old and had an unpleasant smell, The pipe makes horrible noises that scare you and it is very difficult to sleep,I went to the lobby to see If you could change my room and they told me that because my reservation was issued through you Expedia they couldn't help me, the truth is I don't recommend this place to anyone.

I love this place it’s perfect for a mini vacation with family or friends! The rooms are very spacious and you can cook your own foods if you choose to. The pool is huge and it’s nice that you have the poolside bar. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be coming back!
