My experience during check-in could have been more straightforward had there been clearer communication regarding the pool facilities. I was informed that both the indoor and outdoor pools were inoperable, which influenced my decision to book this hotel, as I was looking forward to enjoying both options. After spending 33 minutes searching for another hotel that could accommodate me, I learned from another staff member that only the outdoor pool was unavailable. However the indoor pool was dirty and I did not get in. The following two days both pool were much cleaner. My view of the fountain would have been nice if the window were clean. It seems like the room could really benefit from some cosmetic updates, especially with the visible cracks in the bathroom ceiling and door. The limited TV channels were a bit disappointing, especially with no options for updated TV or streaming services. Still, I found moments of enjoyment during my stay. Peace and quiet. The bed was comfortable, and the abundance of soft pillows made a difference. Breakfast was hot and delicious! I also appreciated having a nice bar area to watch TV, along with various lounge spaces that allowed for a change of scenery. It was lovely to take day and night walks around the village, too. Overall, while there were some issues, there were also many positives to take away from the experience.

Great Stay

Everything was great. Comfortable bed. Super clean. Lots of space. My only complaint is the WiFi was very poor. I couldn’t really do anything online. It would work for a short period of time, but then it would keep disconnecting.
