The location was acceptable and close to necessary amenities.
The service was substandard and irritating. The staff were not attentive, and I consistently had to ask for assistance. My requests for basic room amenities were ignored despite multiple reminders. I also waited an unacceptable amount of time for basic requests.

the breakfast had a very good quality and offered a lot of choices. the location is superb. most major sites are just a short, ten-minute drive away. local shops are also a short walk away. the staff are all very polite and helpful.
some sun loungers by the pool were tired and not comfortable. i think they need replacing soon.
