We enjoyed our stay. They cleaneda our rooms and the staff were very friendly.
Pros:

The property is away from the busy city life which I enjoyed and also a short distance to the city centre.

Cons:

The gym and the pool closed too early. We went out for an early dinner at 5:30 thinking we can go back and go to the pool at 7pm but it’s already closed at 6pm.
