I had a pretty nice stay overall! The hotel is modern and conveniently located near the main attractions. The rooms are spacious and clean, which is a big plus. However, the breakfast spread left a lot to be desired, and while the pool was great, the lounge chairs were not very comfortable. Overall, it was decent value for money, but a few tweaks could make it even better.
