lukewarm food plastic cups
the 'hot' food i expected was often lukewarm. some of the meat i tried was dry. the restaurant felt more like a canteen than a proper dining space. it shared the same area as reception, and the only bar was by the pool. all drinks, even in the evenings, were served in plastic cups.. so annoying.

mixed feelings about the experience

poor cleanliness repetitive food
the hotel's location was acceptable, offering convenient access to nearby shops.
I encountered some issues . the cleanliness in public areas left much to be desired. I noticed fingerprints in the lift and dust on the staircases. the bathroom was small. the food was repetitive and lacked variety. I ended up eating out often, despite paying for all-inclusive plus.
