整體不差，但是既然是整個園區最好的旅館，其實還沒有達到應有的預期
Pros:

服務人員的態度很好，整體旅館環境不錯

Cons:

浴室的設備有損壞。價格不菲的早餐，要喝long black居然要額外收費～

Convenient good quality. Would stay again.
Pros:

We loved that you could walk to the town centre. Really convenient spot. Beds very comfortable. The room was large. There was a lovely pool area but we were there in winter. 🥶 2 degree mornings don’t inspire swimming.
As with all the hotels in the resort the resort shuttle stopped right outside. A great service. Easy to get to other resorts to have meals or join one of the many free activities.

Cons:

Our room rate was very high. I totally understand that this is extremely remote but wow. The prices are crazy. Our room rate didn’t even include breakfast. To buy breakfast at the hotel was outrageously expensive. We landed up buying some cereal and milk at the IGA and making our own.

Pros:

L'emplacement, le cadre

Cons:

Le prix était beaucoup trop élevé pour la qualité de la chambre. Les activités gratuites, la navette, la piscine sont certainement compris dans le prix mais nous ne les avons pas utilisés.
