United Kingdom

Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The air conditioning, shower area and power, the size and space in the room. A lovely view of the pool and kitchen area made the room unique. The pools looked inviting and the general area around the hotel was well maintained and very green and authentic. Staff were welcome and we were able to check in early. Breakfast was good and wholesome- we were also offered a choice of eggs and asked what time we wanted to eat.

Negative: The WiFi worked superbly on the first night but was slow and intermittent on the second evening which was disappointing. Otherwise nothing.

Summary: A lovely stay in a great area - a quiet little haven.😄
