The most friendly and accommodating staff I’ve encountered. Nothing was too much trouble. I had a desk, office chair and router installed in my room. Plus I got a bigger TV! Highly recommended.

The hotel is nice the service you get upon arrival is good and the rooms are nice and big with comfy beds. The only two cons I have about this hotel is the housekeeper.. she was honestly the worst I’ve come across doesn’t clean the rooms properly doesn’t change the sheets and leaves the floors dirty and it takes her forever to come and clean your room she’s so slow. The property is still having work done to it so there’s noise from around 1am-5am and it’s very loud like if you have small children they’d be woken up so on that note I wouldn’t stay here again.

The overall stay was very good, staff was very nice and happy to accommodate for us. However pool side bar was not open at all, which was a little disappointing as it was advertised when we booked. Also the water temperature for the shower was not the best, had to have quick showers. Overall stay would be 3.6/5!
