It was okay for our needs, as we had a funeral to attend.For the price we paid maybe ask the ants not to take over the kitchen and new quality sheets for all beds and a few extra new bath towels. On the plus, air conditioner great upstairs.

Thank you for staying with us Carmela. Thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback. We value feedback such as this as it allows us to improve our service and enhance the overall experience for our guests. It is unfortunate for you to have experienced the ants in the kitchen, however in this humid climate they do tend to come out. We have noted your observations of the sheets and towels and will take this on board moving forward.
We do hope to welcome you to the area in the future.
Kind regards,
