Reviews and Ratings
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious with a good selection of food available after a short time. The recently opened section with its own little pool was a lovely touch. Despite being simple, the two-bedroom setup was comfortable.
I stayed in a ground floor one-bedroom suite with a walk-in shower in April after an operation, which was exactly as pictured. The hotel offers a poolside view that guarantees great sun exposure all day, especially in room 13.
