Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a great stay at this hotel overall. The rooms were clean and cozy, making it a comfortable retreat after a long day. I loved the pool area as it was well-kept and inviting. However, I found the breakfast choices to be somewhat limited, which was a bit disappointing. Also, the Wi-Fi wasn't included, and that felt like an extra expense I wasn't expecting.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasts clean and spacious rooms perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The staff treated me like family, genuinely making my experience enjoyable. However, I found the dining options a bit lacking, especially during breakfast. The hotel's quiet ambiance and nice amenities were a great perk, though I wish the Wi-Fi had been complimentary given the overall price.
