Kandy Myst by Cinnamon
Enjoyed the gym, pool (very warm), and the room was clean. Enjoyed the welcome drink, even if check-in seemed a tad slow. The service at the bar was also very slow, and we actually cancelled our order and went elsewhere for some food. Breakfast was superb and staff were friendly.
