I stayed here for a few nights before a group tour and had the loveliest time.!
Pros:

The staff made me feel so welcome and nothing was too much - even accommodating my dietary requirements as much as possible. They really helped make my travel easy and comfortable.
The pool area is lovely and relaxing, and it’s ideal for the airport or as place to stay before onward travel :) there’s also a rooftop bar for sunset!

Cons:

Some rooms need some TLC but they’re clean and great value :)
