It was a lovely stay for us
Pros:

It is a nice place, the breakfast was great. Maybe a little too quiet for a theme park at times. But a great place!

Cons:

Maybe it needs to be renovated in some places so the look is somehow modern

My day was good & kids were happy at Theme park & also liked the room. You promised us things that were not avai
Pros:

It was clean & big. Liked interior decorations

Cons:

I liked the property, the issue was some things were not communicated at reception. We first struggled to get all TVs to operate. Only when we called, I was instructed what to do. The guy indicated it’s ICT thing that must be activated. Simply inform us or put a note to say” You cannot operate TVs without calling reception”.
