Pros:

Its very close to family's house.

Cons:

Its expensive. And although it is a nice hotel. Nothing extra than another hotel with cheaper price. My room didn't have a mirror in room. Just in bathroom. Which I found lacking as could not see outfit before leaving for a night out.

Wonderful stay. Would highly recommend to our friends and family.
Pros:

The fact both a pool and gym were at our disposal was fantastic so we treated it as more of a health resort. Room was great, (a bigger fridge would have been nice), room great and bar food options first class.

Cons:

No fridge in the room, and a taxi took forever to arrive.

Bien situé, bonne nourriture, mais la salle de bain aurait besoin fe rénovations
Pros:

L’hôtel est relativement bien placé à 10 minutes en auto du centre-ville. Les petits déjeuners étaient corrects. Nous avons pris un diner au restaurant de l’hôtel et c’était excellent.

Cons:

On nous a offert une chambre située à l’arrière de l’hôtel. Il a fait très chaud durant notre séjour et il n’y avait pas d’air climatisé. Nous devions laisser la fenêtre ouverte. Un camion de rebuts est venu ramasser le contenu des bennes à ordures à 6:00 …. Dans la salle de bain, le support de papier-toilette était arraché. Le ventilateur faisait un vacarme dès que l’on ouvrait la lumière.
