I overall liked staying here, my big complaint was in ability of being able to contact the property. Multiple phone calls and a email that was never responded to. It was very frustrating. I also was told if they were to receive a delivery for me there would be a charge.

Our room was beautifully decorated and clean. The staff was very friendly. The food from the poolside restaurant was mediocre but I guess that’s to be expected. Also, our fridge was broken.

The hotel is a little dated, and it shows in small areas. BUT The staff are friendly and helpful, the dining options are very good, the beds are comfortable and the showers are fantastic (weird thing to point out, but I love a good shower situation). The surrounding area has both restaurants and shopping, and it’s in close proximity to some big malls (we used Uber mostly).

Overall I enjoyed this property. The rooms are quite spacious, staff is friendly, breakfast buffet was good. My only problem was the smell of the carpet in the hallways and rooms, it gave off a musty odour.
