Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This is not a nice hotel! The pictures are misleading, it looks like they are probably several years old. The hotel is much less inviting now. I guess it would be fine for travelers on a limited budget who don't mind very basic accommodations. The grounds were untidy with visible piles of garbage, the rooms were spartan and uninviting - the place looked more like a barracks than a hotel. I took one look at the place and my room, and left to find another hotel, even though I had already pre-paid. It'd rate it a 2 out of 5 at best.

Det var en helt fantastisk upplevelse. Väldigt bra service från att jag anlände till flygplatsen tills jag åkte hem De hjälpte till med alla utflykter aldrig några som helst problem, guiden, bilen och chauffören var alltid på plats utsatt tid och var väldigt proffisionella och skickliga på deras jobb. Bra mat lite sämre wi-fi men det fick jag reda på när jag kom att de har problem med företaget som levererar, underbar personal och en chef som verkligen är mån om sina gäster Hit återkommer jag gärna igen
