The room and bathroom smelled bad, and the sheets and pillowcases were very smelly, as if they hadn't been changed after the previous guest checked out. My body was itchy and covered in hives. Issues like this should be addressed carefully, as they affect guest comfort. There's an additional charge for breakfast if you bring two children over 6 years old. The variety and taste of the food are average, as is typical for a 3-star hotel. Please be more careful with the eggs. I asked for boiled eggs but was given raw ones, fortunately I hadn't broken them.

Overall, it was very good, but the food service at the pool was very slow. They should have put other customers' orders on hold if the current one hadn't arrived yet. It's a shame. Please fix this. Everything else is already very good.

The room and bathroom smelled bad, and the sheets and pillowcases were very smelly, as if they hadn't been changed after the previous guest checked out. My body was itchy and covered in hives. Issues like this should be addressed carefully, as they affect guest comfort. There's an additional charge for breakfast if you bring two children over 6 years old. The variety and taste of the food are average, as is typical for a 3-star hotel. Please be more careful with the eggs. I asked for boiled eggs but was given raw ones, fortunately I hadn't broken them.
