Good stay!
We had a good night's sleep. The room was large, and the bathroom was clean. The pillows and mattress were very good, and we really had restful sleep.
Breakfast was simple, but had good coffee and a cappuccino machine!

NOT ACCEPTABLE
Hotels.com CHARGED MY CARD but DID NOT RESERVE a room. So I HAD TO PAY TWICE. Therefore, I expect a FULL REFUND.

A little maintanence would go a long way.
This hotel could be awsome, decent size rooms, great balconies on the rooms and what could be beautiful grounds, including a court yard pool, hot tub, and glass elevator. Unfortunately just run down and not well taken care of. A little maintainence would go a long way.
