This was by far THE WORST property I have ever stayed in. I understand I’m in a different country, but NO ONE spoke English not even a tad it was all hand gestures and that would have been ok if everything else wasn’t AWFUL. We checked in at 3 and were on top of hill with nothing surrounding and had been traveling all day. We wanted something to eat before dinner but NOTHING was open until 8pm. They had a gift shop in the lobby but it was mostly food items to take home, i opted for an ice cream. We went back to our room which was DISGUSTING i took pictures that i wish i could load because it was AWFUL we tried to get another room but again there was a language barrier. So 8pm rolls around and we’re ready for dinner... they served me a frozen pizza that was taken out of the wrapper and STILL cold, my husband got some sort on fish oh and we had bar nuts, our bill was 50$! You’re joking me, right !? I honestly cannot stress the fact of how AWFUL, GROSS and OUTDATED this hotel is. NEVER AGAIN
