Receptionists very pleasant and helpful. Rooms very basic: in ours, the soap dispenser and hairdryer did not work. The big problem was the vast difference between online pricing and what we’re actually charged. This has not been satisfactorily handled by management. We are contacting Expedia and possibly local authorities.

We booked for a volleyball tournament. Close to everything, clean, and my kids liked to pool to unwind after being in a gym all day watching volleyball. The only downside was the traffic noise outside our room, but it quieted by midnight and didnt pick up again until 7am'ish.
