We stayed at this property for 3 nights. We had the family suite that was on the ground floor. First off the ac wasn’t working well that I had to go buy a fan from down the street to make the room at least enough for us to feel cool in the room. Willam and the men that work the reception was amazing. Unfortunately the women staff had major attitude and when I asked for an extra towel the lady in the front said “no” after I asked to speak to the manager she quickly changed her mind and gave me one. Not to mention when I checked out they wanted to charge me 10 euros for giving me a towel to use. The location is great. Breakfast is ok. Room was too hot. Not worth the place with the amount they charge for a room.

Needs to work on better service

The hotel was clean. But the service was sub-par. They advertise that breakfast is included but the breakfast opens at 8AM (in most hotels its 6 or 7AM). All the tours start by 7:30AM. The person at the reception who said his name is William was not customer friendly at all. We had to practically beg him to make a cup of coffee in the morning or have it self-served. He would turn off the A/C even when we were in the room at night. We had to ask him to turn it on every night.
