We had a nice big room and we loved the pool area, which came with a stunning view. Breakfast was also great. On the less positive side, we found our bed was creaky and hard, the shower had cold water, and we had a lot of flies around our room. Also, the staff member who checked us in wasn’t very forthcoming with information.
