Reviews
Its quiet and clean in general, great landscape and beautiful swimming pools. However, its isolated at a far end of the city with no shopping or restaurants in the area beyond its walls. You are forced to relay on their overpriced in-house stores with limited brands and items. You need to pass security checkpoints to even get to the area, then another one to get pass the gate and another with metal detectors to get inside. You get the feeling of being watched on every move, warnings of stealing items and overcharging all the time including changing your room thermostat!!!
Long list of items you can't bring in. We had to keep most of our shopping to items that wont get bad if left in the car with 110+ degree temperatures.
You get the feeling of big brother watching and staff keeping an eye all the time. Unless you keep a "do not disturb" tag on the door they tend to give themselves permission to access your room when you are gone.
I wouldn't recommend using the place for sleep but maybe other options of facilities access for a fee that you just pay to spend the day only.
Porch door is a fight to open and close.
