    Did not know the pet fee regardless is $150!!!! I have never seen where you pay 500$ for 2 days and a small dog is $150 without knowing until you get here. I will not be staying again. They say pet friendly??

    The bathroom sink was kind of small and uncomfortable. The worst part is that they did not clean the room & did not even change the towels that we left on the floor.

    Staff was friendly and courteous.

    I booked two nighs at this hotel mostly to relax at the pool after a conference. Breakfast ends at 9:30 which I realietzed at 930. This is too early IMO. To get a decent coffee and a sandwich I had to get a ride to the closest coffee place ($10). The whole journey including coffee and breakfast cost me $40 then. This took away a lot of time from me being at the pool. Once I got to the pool, relaxed for an hour and fell asleep two people - one with a mower, one with a blower - came to deal with the greenery and made incredible noise in the courtyard - just around about 1 pm. Why do these people not do that work when no one is at the pool like when its in shadow later afternoon!!?? So my one full day at the hotel was severly compromised.

    Very nice pool and garden for the money!

    The steps leading to the hotel from two parking areas are very uneven and the handrail does not go all the way down to all of the stairs, making it dangerous for someone with mobility and balance issues. I called ahead and asked for a room that would be easy to access, but was given one by these uneven stairs. If I had a room on the other side of the hotel I could have entered and exited much more easily. The overhead light in the bathroom goes on automatically via a sensor. I very much disliked this feature! It is glaringly bright in the middle of the night, and one night came on without me moving several times, scaring me and disturbing my sleep. Awful! A simple nightlight would suffice.

    Clean room, wonderful bed and linens, great location, excellent air conditioning unit. Miguel was very helpful in getting my luggage to my car--thank you! Wish I had known to ask for helping in getting it to the room at the beginning of my stay.

    Only provided two towels in the room, And the breakfast options were expensive and limited to pre-made items even though it seems like there’s a kitchen.

    The Starbucks in the hotel was great. Staff was nice.

    A little ways of from the beach. The towels seemed to be a little. Low, but the front desk gave us more. There is no thatching else I can think of,

    Staff was friendly and attentive to requests. Place was well located and there are a lot of nearby restaurants. Pool was very clean. Room was spacious and clean. Probably one of the better Courtyards That I have stayed in.

    While in the pool area there wasn’t any towels available I had to go to the front office to request some. In the room we only had two towels for the 3 of us. Also no extra blanket for the sofa bed. I called the Lobby for an extra blanket for the sofa bed and I was told to come down and get it.

    Room was very clean. We were able to get a bathroom with disability access shower for our four year old son as we requested. Plus the location of our room was great to get in and out of the hotel without having to get my son exhausted while using his walker. The pool was also conveniently located.
