A well appointed room for the price. Good pool and easy to access. Unfortunately the air conditioner both dripped and spat out a lot of ice when it was being run. We had to put a towel down to collect it but it was soaking, and black and wasn't removed during towel replacement. This property was easy to find and had a restaurant attached. We found out that you got a discount at the restaurant after our meal. It would be good to be asked if you were staying at the venue.
