It was okay- no room to place luggage, poor lighting
Pros:

No where to put our stuff, no suitcase stand, no chair- it was a small room so I get the no chair- would have liked shampoo, conditioner instead of body wash-shampoo combo-

Excellent experience from the very moment we arrived.
Pros:

Everything about this property was superb. From the moment we arrived for our short stay, we were welcomed warmly by Henry who kindly helped us with our bags and was very informative. Our room was extremely clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed and only a 10 minute drive into the centre. We will definitely choose to stay here again when we return.

Cons:

There’s nothing we didn’t like.

Netjes goede locatie
Pros:

Kamer was ruim en schoon

Cons:

Had er iets meer gezelligheid van verwacht. De foto op booking is alleen het middelste deel van het hotel waar drank wordt verkocht. De rest is moderner. Geen duidelijke receptie . Je moet naar de bar om je sleutel te krijgen. Daar kom je pas achter wanneer je op onderzoek gaat.
