    Family rooms are very small but it's understandable as it's a hotel!

    Breakfast is excellent, location is good closer to malls and beach! Secure free parking!

    As a Muslim, I noticed veggies and meat were next to each other , it should be separate. . The cheese was next to the pork

    Excellent location. Clean and comfortable room. Safe parking.

    We were 4 guest and only received 2 towels, 2 milk, 2 sugar. If they can see on the booking that we are 4 guests why not accommodate 4? Then you phone reception and ask for more items, then you wait an hour. And not bring everything you asked for. Far from they beach, even the car park was a distance. Not much too chooce from ay the breakfast bar.

    The bed was so soft and comfy. Love it

    Food, food, and that cappuccino 🤩🤩 and restaurant staff, tops!!!!

    The lady at check in was far from friendly even requested my ID and made me feel like I was not good enough to afford to sleep there. Anyway rather she was concentrating on my hubby. A previous day she had made me feel like s prostitute and we were part of group booking. But coz the food and floor staff was welcoming we booked again for second night.

    The rooms don't have irons, you have to call reception and request one. The bar fridge is way too small and bottles roll out of it. The food is extremely blend. But I would definitely book with them again.

    The staff were all great, even security. Our room was nice and clean with a big bathroom that had both a shower & a bathtub. The pool area was so nice & quiet and relaxing. They also do room service which for us we got our food delivered to our room soon after ordering it. The hotel is close to basically everything. They have a buffet breakfast every morning until 10:30am. And checkout time is 11am which is very reasonable.
