Great Pool
I stayed here a few months ago when on travel with friends. It was a nice hotel - but actually had a bit of a "motel" feel with everything centered around the pool. That being said - the pool was fabulous - we spent a fair amount of time there. The hotel has a boutique feel in the lobby, the rooms are adequate - not huge - but nice and comfortable with the basic amenities. We had a very nice time - and if you're ok with not having five star luxury - stay here - you'll like it. If you want five star - go to The Ritz By: Brandon on October 20, 2008
