Outdated rooms, beds need updating. In general they should renovate the entire hotel. Very nice and helpful staff. The food at the buffet tasted very good but limited selection. There is no variety of restaurants to eat.

I liked the way the rooms were laid out with 8 rooms per building. The rooms were very outdated though and the AC did not work. I was cooler with the window open than I was with the AC running. The staff was also very friendly.
