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.

Great location. Nice rooms. Very comfortable. Only downside was mildew in the bathroom ceiling vent. And the second bedroom had no tv, plugs behind the bed and now ceiling light or fan in the room. Air conditioning doesn’t get very cold in the rooms. Very stuffy.
