"I rarely submit feedback even though I'm opinionated.
this place ""grew" on us after we "settled in" and decided NOT to move to Airport Sheraton.
I'd put it in the "not-so-bad and worth the low low price" category.
Gorgeous exterior fitting a VILLA, close to airport and nice shuttle.
Have stayed in world class resorts (Like Adare Manor in Shannon) but happy to use budget hotels like Holiday inn express however I am critical about unforced errors and this nice property has a few.
initially "put off" at check-in because what could easily be a beautiful lobby is awkwardly chopped up and is "decorated" in a frightfully tacky way.
I snooped inside a closed door and found
huge spectacular ballroom 20 feet from center entrance which should be proudly displayed!
Bar not open til 4:00- good thing check in is 12:00 with cold drinks in mini bar.
Poorly lit Dining room had bad vibe but 100% occupancy which appeared satisfied. Dinner mediocre -Why were windows covered with ugly sheer poly curtains when view of trees outside is gorgeous?
Pool was, at first glance, a blue hole in the parking lot surrounded by hedgerow. Then people started coming and having a nice time.
Room tiny, bed decor sketchy, fake wood floor, bathroom comp to an RV. But the shower water pressure was fantastic and we slept fine after two cocktails and a bottle of wine.
Traveling is all about adjusting expectations and being able to deal with some flaws and make the best of it."
