Relaxing stay
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay from the first moment. Check-in was smooth, our room, 410, was very nice and clean, the bed so comfortable.
Staff were polite and helpful. We enjoyed the swimming pool, as well.

Bedrooms too hot and small
Pros:

The staff were exceptional. The hotel was clean. The breakfast was very good. Plenty of choices.

Cons:

The rooms were the smallest we have ever stayed in. No aircon and windows did not open enough to let air in. We were given a fan which was useless. Our two single beds were very hard and uncomfortable. We asked for a bed topper but hotel did not have any. Bar food was not good. We were at a wedding and that food was excellent.
