Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the friendly and attentive service, spacious and comfortable rooms, and good quality breakfast. However, some noted issues with cleanliness, limited food variety, and extra charges for pool access. The hotel grounds and pool were visually appealing, but the indoor pool required an additional fee. Overall, the positive aspects of service, room comfort, and breakfast outweighed the negatives for many guests.
