Everywhere in the hotel says dinner and lunch are served but not really. Only breakfast was available all three days we stayed. There was no good restaurants near by except one, causing difficulty for customers.

Room is clean, modern and central location. Has an onsite restaurant and a pool and free off street parking. We had a plumbing problem in our room and reported it. Bit disappointed with the response and lack of tidying/providing fresh towels etc. otherwise can’t complain.

Reception staff were helpful, located close to the airport and helped book a taxi early in the morning. Dated room, some stains on the bedding and generally could have been cleaner. Small pool overlooking the road was nice to cool down in but not much else.
