1. It did the trick for about an hour and then we were forced to deal with the popcorn smell again.

3. It was clearly obvious that the cleaning staff did a poor job of ensuring the smell was gone.

4. CHECK IN: Brittany was awesome she got us out of the mold smelling rooms in Building 9 that we were originally assigned, and then upgraded us to newer rooms (bldg 27) closer to the kids pool .

5. Just a warning, you do get the odd cockroach around the villa, but this really cannot be helped as it is hot, they do not cause any harm at all and if you tell the staff on reception they will send someone up to spray the apartment (it did not smell).

6. Once we finally checked into our room it smelled like smoke sO we called the front desk and they offered to switch our rooms.

7. The only things we didn't like about our stay were the sales pitch, the smell of the water (which I suppose is a Florida thing, not a Sheraton thing).

8. We aired the place out and the smell was much better the next day.

9. The villa was nice enough and clean, but smelled moldy when we arrived.

10. The only downside was our room had a connecting door through to a small one bed room (both rooms are used when you book a 2 bed room) which does not block out noise very well, could here next doors conversions and also on one night could smell cooking coming from next door (curry).
