Adequate Stay
swimming pools interior design accessible spaces dirty tissues
The location was great. The swimming pools were also nice. The interior design looked beautiful.
I was informed that parking should have been pre-reserved upon arrival. There were no accessible spaces left. I had a wheelchair user with me so had to get them out before finding parking elsewhere. There were dirty tissues in the bathroom so cleaning had not been carried out meticulously.
