Very good location close to resort center for travel information, bus station, grocery and restaurants. Free on-site laundry machines are very helpful. The negative side is that our room on the first floor had some humidity smell and we saw a few tiny ants on the shower floor. But overall, we are happy with the property.

Strange archecture in the rooms. Weird bathroom/toilet/sink arrangement, especially for two people sharing as you have to step outside the wet shower room floor to dry off. Rooms quite small. For your ne person staying in the room it would probably work ok, but for two people a bit stressful
