Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a really nice view, but some areas felt a bit outdated. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience enjoyable. The pool was cold at first, but once in, it was refreshing. The food was good and varied, catering to different nationalities.
