Absolutely amazing hotel, friendly helpful staff couldn’t do enough for you everywhere was spotlessly clean. The whole interior is above and beyond, food is great and very reasonable price for food and drinks. Rooms are very spacious.
The room was clean and comfortable with towels changed daily. I was pleased to have found a hotel that had TV channels in English. Breakfast was excellent with fresh ingredients and fruit, I was pleased that the bread on offer was fresh and not dry like some hotels. Staff were friendly and very helpful. I would definitely stay here again.
