Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was not cleaned properly, especially the bathroom was dirty. The handrail on the balcony was broken. The AC was too weak. The breakfast options were too limited and of low quality. The dinner buffet was awful. The pool is very small and water is cold as it is in the shadow all day. Price is high compared to the quality.

Vom Balkon aus hat man den Ausblick auf eine riesige Baustelle die sehr laut ist. Außerdem ist die Juniorsuite nicht so auagestattet wie in der Beschreibung angegeben. Keine Bademäntel.keine Hausschuhe und auch keine Zahnbürsten. Duschgelspender war auch defekt. Kann ich nicht weiterempfehlen.
