Facility is good, has a heated swimming pool and a gym. Wood fire pizza from rooftop restaurant is so tasty. Location is good, easy access to everything by car. However, the bathroom needs to have hooks for towels if you want customers to reuse towels. Also if the rooms have balcony it would add extra layer of comfort.

The room and staff were great but it was the pool & gym which we found unusual because it's in a seperate complex not in the hotel itself and secondly the fact that as a guest you cannot visit the roof top bar even for a quick look until around 4pm which is when the lifts open to all.
