A comfortable stay, an excellent property
Pros:

Rooms were excellent. The Buffet Breakfast was good. The pool was more than enough to be able to cool down. The grounds were well kept and the rooms were very clean. Loved the Coffee Machine and Pods in our room.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our traveling party had a lesser room considering there were only two people were in their room. They did not have a balcony, nor did they have a coffee machine in their room.

Great location, good price point
Pros:

Friendly staff, beautiful grounds, great location

Cons:

The room we had was not clean, mould throughout the bathroom and dirt build up on the floor. Cleanliness is important to us for a comfortable stay, for this reason we won’t stay again.
