Pros:

فقط الغرفة كانت جيده ..

Cons:

مسبح واحد فقط ، ازعاج اطفال وصراخ .. و الخدمه فيه سيئه جداً .. لا يوجد شخص يخدم القاطنين بالفندق .. والمسابح الأخرى للمشتركين في النادي الرياضي فقط😂

في شخص لبناني يعمل في الرسبشن غير متعاون للأمانه .. بالمقابل في موظف مصري جداً خلوق ومحترم ..

اضافة الى ان البوفيه سيء .. من سوء الفندق الأن راح اعمل Check Out قبل الوقت 😂 وتجربه لن ولم تتكرر
