I was only staying two nights, but its outside of the city so you have to drive or uber to this location. My room was ok at best, for the amount i paid breakfast or transportation into the city should have been included.

We'll the photos do not represent what is there. Very lively and quiet property. The access to one pool is daunting. The property there looks in disrepair.

Not to a resort quality

Late arrival as just stopping the night! Stayed a week before and this time a different room. It smelled very bad, spray didn’t even work on the smell at all. No amenities in the room for having something lite to eat on as restaurant closes early even for a Saturday night. No service or any way to call reception, which as resulted in a very long painful walk to reception. In general very run down, but staff are helpful and friendly.
