the staff was really good, friendly, and accommodating. the breakfast had many choices. the suite was spacious and clean. i enjoyed the balcony with its view, it was great. we also found free parking outside the hotel, a bonus.
The pool area seemed a bit small. It needed more sunbeds for the number of guests the hotel accommodates.

Okay hotel, some issues present

decent suitebreakfast varietylimited sunbedsmissing door
the size of my suite was really decent, i appreciate that. Breakfast had a variety of options and was mostly good. i found staff friendly most of the time.
the pool had less than 40 sunbeds for the entire hotel. getting a sunbed became A daily battle. The rooms were cleaned daily, i was happy. the shower did not have A door or curtain, so the water was everywhere during my showers.
