Neat clean and tidy. very friendly and helpful staff who were very happy to help. I would;ld certainly recommend it if you were going to that area for business purposes but I doubt that it's appropriate for a family vacation. There's nothing much to do unless you get in a vehicle and travel.

I marked 4 stars in property because the cafe facilities were minimal. I’m not sure if this is part of the complex or a private enterprise. It was disappointing they didn’t offer a full menu as I always had a meal there to manage my time.
