Standard room was small and cramped. Bed comfortable but duvet too small for size of bed. No water in room . Swimming pool changing rooms were brig updated but poor nicely warm and cones without extra charge to guests. Overall okay for two or three nights as very convenient. Did not eat there so cannot comment on food but it didn’t look that good.

We stayed at this Mar. 25 - 29, 2024. Checking in was quick and the front desk staff that checked us in were friendly and helpful. Room was small but clean with no usb plugs so bring a converter. A big negative is that our room was only cleaned once and even then the dirty coffee cups and spoon were left on the counter. Really unacceptable for the price that you are paying. Facilities at the hotel were good. The hotel is in a great area close to transportation, restaurants and shopping.

Its lucky me and my dad aren't big as the bathroom was ridiculously small. Breakfast was ok, but I'm not convinced the scrambled eggs were made with real eggs, maybe powdered, they tasted of nothing.
