Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
For the high price I expected more amenities. There wasn’t only a combined hair/body wash pot. There was some instant coffee but no milk provided. Our bathroom handle was broken and after reporting it, no one was sent to fix it. This was quite dangerous. We had a room for 4 but not enough towels for all of us. The property had not received our booking from Expedia apparently and check in took a long time. The staff were great and very friendly and the pool area is nice. I wouldn’t say it was worth the money.
