decent stay

friendly staff helpful staff convenient location spacious room outdated decoration road noise shaded pool
The staff were friendly and helpful. the location was convenient for getting around. the room was spacious, and the bed was comfortable. the housekeeping staff left nice notes. This was a welcome touch.
the interior room decoration felt a bit outdated. there was noise from the road throughout the night. the pool was in shade for most of the afternoon, limiting swimming time.
