Lovely Getaway
room upgrade birthday note helpful staff tropical shower
Our room upgrade gave us a FANTASTIC start. A birthday note with chocolates was there. So thoughtful! Bar staff were kind and helpful. When I asked for bottled water, they provided a large bottle, complimentary. The jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, and tropical shower were amazing.
The bathroom felt old-fashioned. It lacked modern luxury I expected.

overpriced for what you get
small room unwelcoming staff
the breakfast went very well.
i booked a superior double room for one night , described as spacious with a tv , a sofa , and two beds , but it was not the case. the room was small with only one double bed and a sofa folded out. the girl at the front desk who checked us in was not very cute or forthcoming with information about the hotel.
