Pros:

The staff were great, always smiling and ready to assist when necessary. The location is nice, close walk to the beach and shops. Easy to get a tuk tuk as well. The pool was amazing!

Cons:

The breakfast could be improved. There was no toaster available. Some of the cups were chipped and had brown marks inside. Not a pleasant feel. The pictures seem to be from when the hotel opened probably and the rooms look abit more worn down. There were no toiletries/gowns provided like in the pictures.

Geweldig
Pros:

Alles was perfect in orde. Het eten was super lekker en het personeel is heel vriendelijk en hardwerkend. Ze zijn hier zo proper. Vroeg in de ochtend zie je al dat ze aan het dweilen zijn, controleren van het zwembad. Nooit heb ik een plekje gezien dat nog vuil was. Er was een dag dat het hevig aan het regenen was en ze boden een paraplu aan zodat ik droog naar je kamer kan stappen. Iedereen staat altijd klaar om je verblijf tot een succes te maken. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.

Cons:

De fitnesstoestellen zijn wat verroest en is aan vernieuwing toe maar dat is enkel relevant als je graag sport tijdens je verblijf.

On est allé dans 4 hôtels pendant notre séjour et c'est le seul où on n'a pas été satisfait...
Pros:

Le personnel était souriant et disait quelques mots en français (Bonjour, merci, ...)
Il y avait une grande piscine

Cons:

La chambre donne directement sur une piscine et sur le restaurant de l'hôtel en face donc tout le monde te voit quand tu es dans la chambre. La porte de la chambre en mauvais état, l'eau de la douche passe sous la vitre (il n'y avait pas de joint) et donc il y a plein d'eau en dehors jusqu'aux toilettes qui sont trempées...
Le carrelage glissait et comme il pleuvait ce n'était pas du tout adapté.
Le restaurant est un buffet moyen où on se sert en bas et on mange en haut donc il faut prendre l'escalier extérieur avec sa nourriture et quand il pleut c'est assez périlleux entre le carrelage glissant et toute l'eau de pluie qui tombe dans la nourriture...
Les équipements étaient tous vétustes ou cassés : Tout était en mauvaise état : Billard déformé avec des boules manquantes et les queues cassées ainsi que le tapis abimé et en pente, raquettes cassées de ping pong, cible du jeu de fléchette cassé aussi donc en fait il n'y avait rien en bon état dans l'espace "jeu".
Petite salle de sports en mauvais état également et qui ressemble à un aquarium où il fait une chaleur insoutenable et tout le monde peut te regarder pendant ta séance, j'y suis resté 2min vu que tout était cassé et que de toute façon c'était une fournaise où on transpire même sans faire de sport.
Pour aller à la plage depuis l'hôtel on s'est fait aborder de très nombreuses fois en nous proposant de la drogue, c'est même difficile de circuler jusqu'à la plage... donc je me pose aussi des questions sur ce quartier...
