By far the worst and narrowest double bed we have ever encountered in hotel like this. Tbe pillows were not much help either. It had the feel of a cheap package holiday hotel. The staff were not unfriendly, but had a jaded attitide. The room key had to be reprogrammed multiple times as it unexplainably stopped working. The breakfast was average. To add insult to injury, they had the pool area booked for a large fashion show which prevented gusts acccess to the pool. I wouldnt recommend this hotel.
