"we had a nice visit to the hotel. Front staff was great. Very professional. We never used the pool, but everyone else seemed to love it. We ate in the hotel restaurant a few times, and the food was ok, service good have been better, but it was also ok. Overall, was a good stay, and would stay there ..."
