Only complaint was the big stain spot on the carpet as I walked in oh and dingy grout in the bathroom...but this sure was an upgrade from a handicap room.The balcony with partial golf course view and the great breakfast (food & room service) really made the stay truly a remarkable one.couldn't have done it without the helpful information especially the priceline mapsthank you thank you thank you betterbidding.com!!!!!!!
