The hotel was amazing, the staff were super friendly and helpful. The room we were upgraded to was great, the mattresses were really soft and the pillows were nice, the balcony was an amazing addition. The only concern we had with the place was the smell of damp, but we opened the balcony doors and that helped a lot.

Overall not the best stay. Room was very small, bed sheets were ripped, curtains very dirty and towels falling apart. Only one bin in the room, no flannels. TV also was not working. Power sockets broke. Pool looked bigger on the photos. Barely a sun trap with the building over the pool so lack of sun all times during the day. Area around the hotel great, amenities within walking distance. Wouldn’t stay again. Not the best experience.
