Reviews and Ratings
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The room had a tiny bathroom badly built into the bedroom, but it also had a terrace with an outside table, which was a nice touch. The recently renovated bathroom was a definite plus, and having my own balcony added to the experience. The service was excellent, including room service, dry cleaning, laundry, and a welcome drink upon arrival. The location was pretty close to the town center and just a short distance from the golf course we were playing at. It was also conveniently situated to access various other great golf courses and beaches. The dining experience was particularly delicious, especially the spare ribs. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, making my stay very comfortable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms are lovely with a great breakfast option and a balcony terrace overlooking a beautiful garden. The access to my own little spot in the garden was a nice touch, and the recently renovated bathroom added to the comfort of the room. However, the price could be better for the value offered.

I love that the hotel is right in the city center, so convenient! The rooms are pretty cozy, and I even have my little spot in the garden. The service is on point with room service and a welcome drink. The dining spot offers delicious Angus beef, yum! But some tiny bathroom hiccups. Great location overall!
