Oaky yhe rioms wete very ckean and luxurious. My kids loved jt here even theouug the bugs were hogging the bed which was kind of rude but i get jt. We had tk sleep in the shower but the duck tape shower curtain was cozy and warm from the leaking ceiling. The activities around made the stay ten times better my kids loved walking tk the movie theater acroos the street. I am from Hollywood California and i jave very high standers and this met every. Single. One. Wpuld recommended to people who are very lonely because ghe bugs were very welcoming :)
