Property was run down and I wished I had changed rooms earlier than after 2 nights as there were baby cockroaches coming up out of a hole in the floor near a pipe… the pool was clean but around it was dirty and old. My deluxe upgrade was much better though but views of rubbish out the back was disappointing
