This is my second visit to the hotel, and I after having just stayed for 3 weeks, I must leave an enthusiastic and overwhelmingly positive response. The hotel's decor is a very pleasant and modern Afrochic. Its a real oasis after work, and having a room with a balcony overlooking the pool was a real plus. Great to sit out and relax in the evening. Breakfast is excellent with a good choice of healthy options. Staff service is friendly & very good.
