Very poor experience the toilets are bad the room is dusty.
Pros:

There wasn’t anything good about the hotel. They closed the kitchen at 9pm. Did not take kids food order. There was smoke smell throughout the corridors. The bed has a wood finish that keeps hurting every time we pass.

Cons:

Not meant for family with kids. Terrible experience will never go back to that hotel.

I had a wonderful stay!
Pros:

The hotel was lovely, and the staff offered help whenever I needed it. In fact, they went above and beyond. When a cab I needed to take to the airport at 1:30 AM didn't show up, the owner took me on the three-hour drive in his own car.

Cons:

The hotel can be a bit hard to find (but the staff will assist you).
