Reviews and Ratings
My stay was a mix of positives and negatives. The hotel rooms were clean and cozy with great amenities like a microwave and mini fridge, but they were teeming with tiny ants in the morning. Finding seating in the morning was a hassle due to the limited space. Despite these issues, I enjoyed the comfort of the beds and pillows.
The hotel room was spacious, very clean, and in great shape, with great facilities. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the staff were very helpful with information about restaurants and sights. The location was near shops and restaurants, and I was pleased to see china crockery and metal utensils provided. The dining experience had lots of hot and cold options to choose from. Overall, the hotel offers a comfortable stay with friendly service, but some areas need improvement in cleanliness.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious and equipped with Jacuzzis, were a bit dark and messy from all the kids running around. The service, however, made up for the inconvenience with helpful assistance and even offering an extra shower room. The location was convenient with easy access to shopping and dining but had some cleanliness issues. Overall, the facilities were decent, and the value for money was acceptable.
I found the hotel to be a comfortable stay with a good layout in the rooms, although it got quite crowded in the morning with people waiting for space. The service was a mixed bag with friendly but slightly inconvenienced staff. The location offered direct highway access and was close to shopping and restaurants, although a bit scummy in parts. The dining experience was average at best, with a good selection of breakfast items. Overall, a decent stay marred by a few inconveniences.
This hotel had rooms packed with furniture, making it a bit cramped, but the breakfast was exceptional with a wide variety of hot and cold options served in a pleasant dining room. The place was lively with many kids darting around from the pool. Plus, they offer fantastic bunk beds for the little ones.
