Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room and staff were great but it was the pool & gym which we found unusual because it's in a seperate complex not in the hotel itself and secondly the fact that as a guest you cannot visit the roof top bar even for a quick look until around 4pm which is when the lifts open to all.

Parking was an issue if you don’t like leaving your vehicle out of a secure area as there is not enough car spaces for the room I guess.

El servicio de internet es malisimo. Es como si no existiria. Olvidate de este lugar si haces trabajo remoto. No se puede creer q el servicio de internet sea tan malo en la era que vivimos, incluso exiatiendo Starlink.
