Dated building and rooms; was generally clean but a bit run down. We got the suites which were spacious - and nice to have two bathrooms and two bedrooms. Toiletries supplied. No hot water for our showers. Beds had little beetles crawling on them - we flicked them off and then were fine. Breakfast was good. Overall price ok.

NO SLEEP

At checkin, NO ONE told us they planned to play extremely loud music with vibration until 2 am. At 11:30 called reception, at 12:10 got dressed and walked to reception. At 1:10 they finally reduced music to level that would have been acceptable from start. A/c had annoying bright white light, black out curtains wouldn’t close. Loud footsteps above at 6 am. Tepid shower water. Our room was furthest from restaurant which meant 5 minute uphill walk over uneven tile stairs. And yes, reception is not where you expect and there was mold on wall. All I wanted was a good nights sleep before long drive, and this hotel refused to provide that.

Mold and flakey drywall/paint on wall hidden by cupboard in our room. Cantena bar and restaurant was exceptional. Yard and building maintenance lacking. Would be a 4-5 star if more care taken in building maintenance.
