Would not recommend

There were straw papers and crumbs in the hallway when we arrived. The sheets had stains that appeared to be black mold. There was so much water damage to the bottom of the bathroom door the grey paint had peeled off all the way across. The beds were miserably hard. We arrived very late and moved hotels the next day.

Coming there not a first time, mostly because of location and pool area for kids! Everything looks pretty old but clean and they should do a heated pool, in summer time it’s ok but autumn winter it’s horrible, sauna would be great too! But all my family likes this place! So I am happy to recommend for the families with kids!
