The breakfast had high quality food. the check in was smooth and the staff were excellent throughout my stay. the spa pool was a nice additional bonus to have. I wish i had more time to use it.

i found the regulation of lighting unnecessarily complicated. the lighting was inadequate, especially in the bathroom. i also noticed badly placed sockets throughout the room, made charging devices inconvenient.

attentive staff gorgeous room

The room was large and gorgeous!!! The hotel was clean and so luxurious. I felt very looked after. The staff were very attentive.

The room lighting was quite dark. It gave a gloomy mood and sometimes made it difficult to see things.
