The staff helped us so much. Hamza checked us in early after our long flight, this was greatly appreciated. Fatima answered all our questions and showed us the gym plus the spa. Julia often checked on us and gave sightseeing advice. All staff members were a pleasure to see. From beginning to end, the service was wonderful. We always felt cared for.
The room was definitely too small.
