Worst experience in the last 25 years. My Tablet was stolen (allegedly by cleaning staff). The room is noisy from the A/C and thin walls.

The staff was really nice friendly and helpful. The pool was great. I wish there would been fruit at breakfast or something that wasnt carb based a bit more variety would be better. The bed was comfy and room was clean. We were treated very well. I will be coming back likely in Aug. It is far from train n bus station though. City buses stop at front door the express ones.

Loved the cleanliness of the pool and the room. Friendly, accommodating staff- we were allowed to check out an 1.5 later because our 5 year wanted to spend more time in the pool. The only thing we didn’t like was the back of the building on one side. We arrived late and the abandoned wing at the back looked menacing. However, the inner yard with the pool is very cosy and well kept. Overall, would definitely stay again!
