Restaurant is quite poor, food quality not up to standards, always cold, same for bar, table dirty and my “non smoking room” was actually a smoking room
You have a staff member called Aslin, from the moment I arrived he is asking for more money than the service actually costs. 40rm for taxi grab service is 10rm
It’s a great place to rest for a couple of days before the next flight. The food was good, staff was friendly and helpful, and there’s a great little spa (very good massages). The pool looked nice but the water was quite cloudy when I swam, so that was a little worrying. It meant that the pool wasn’t cleaned or properly chlorinated. I would stay again.
The hotel was so clean, we enjoyed our stay. The restaurant buffet seafood dinner was amazing, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, staff were very friendly, would highly recommend to anyone.
Very pleasant stay, rooms soo clean, staff so friendly and clean towels, breakfast amazing, pool good, spa very nice. It is soo nice that we came back from the other property we had booked.
Breakfast service can be improved.
1st day - over easy eggs were with broken egg yolk
2nd day - no more egg at 830am
3rd day - I was told how to order my eggs when he is not listening when I place my order
4th day - over easy eggs were burnt in 1 side and with broken egg yolk
Very disappointed
