Very nice 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo. The decor is 70ish with yellow paint and lots of full length mirrors in every room. The pool is heated to 82 degrees, a nice perk since we were visiting in December. Some rooms on the 2nd floor have views of the mountains, but on the bottom floor, not so much.

This is a very nice option especially if you are traveling with family or group and staying more than one night. There are two bedrooms two bathrooms and a kitchen. It’s basically a small apartment. The staff was great and everything was clean. Parking was easy and pool was nice also. Great for the price.

The property is somewhat dated, but clean and comfortable. We were only there overnight but it had a lot of amenities for a family to enjoy an extended stay. Priced reasonably.
