This place is absolutely disgusting. We booked 9 nights. This hotel is full of roaches!!!!! And they are really big…. To top it off the shower was broken upon arrival. Then the restroom door knob was broken. And we couldn’t even flush the toilet. We called them to fix or to switch us to a diffrent room. They declined and kind you they were at our hotel until 3 am to fix the restroom things and said we did the best we could. And as for the roaches. They said it comes with hotel we can’t do anything about it. But we can give you dinner buffet to make it up. But if you think about the breakfast buffet. It’s more of prison style breakfast. Meaning poor quality. And everything is covered in plastic and food just gets reused for next day.

The focus of the hotel are the 3 nice medium-sized pools catering the needs of kids and adults. Some beautiful greenery and flowers around. Then the hotel and the rooms would clearly need some refreshing. The a/c in the rooms is old and noisy (we were there during a heat wave). Breakfast and food are okeish, but not lavish, which I guess goes with moderate cost of the facility. Staff is very nice, but that sometimes does not balance out some shortcomings of the hotel itself. All in all, an ok place.

Zeer vriendelijke staf, ruime kamers met connecting doors. Beetje outdated en scharrig hier en daar, maar overall heel comfortabel en vooral prettig. Fijn zwembad, heerlijk ontbijt.

Bad experience, the room was not clean, the cushions looks they don't change the covers it was very dirty, the stuff is not friendly at all, no trust for customers, my reservation was with breakfast but when I arrived they told me it's without, I called Expedia , Expedia say sorry we can give you complementary cup of cake , after we paid on cash for breakfast without any compensation, even the breakfast is not tasty with limited options, bad experience at all, I'll not repeat it for sure

Staff and the public areas are nice, but the room was dated. There is was an old school CRT TV, the fabric on the chair was ripped, and there were stains on the desk. However, the temperature control and bed were comfortable, the shower was good too.
