The room was clean and the staff was personable however when I went to take a shower in the morning, there was no hot water in the shower, it was hot in the sink but not in the shower no matter how long I waited. so I was forced to just wash off.

The photos online did not match the reality. Rooms were tiny with poor lighting and gaps in thebdoor frame. Shower pressure was lacking. The pool was disappointing. Not only was it tiny but the railing was detached, it was completely overcrowded and unsupervised.

Not a fan

If you’re looking for a 1 night for a bed ok but nothing more than that. Bathroom nozzle to shower was falling off, barely any hot water, run down, needs a lot of upgrades, service was the only positive. Definitely not worth the price I paid.

It’ll do!

The facilities been improved, some areas they missed the mark. Sloppy workmanship, it takes away from the work that they’ve done. The pool needs cleaned around the top ledge, daily. It had a scum ring. The area is nice with outdoor seating.
