Fine for a night

The room would be ok for 1 night. I spent 5 nights there and that was 4 too many really. The room is ok but other than sitting on the bed there was only an uncomfortable plastic chair. The doors seem to be paper thin and did nothing to quieten every noise from the passage way. Pool is lovely and certainly the star of the show here.

Shelley

Disliked: Cleanliness
An unnecessarily long check in process which included over 15 minutes to get seen by receptionist. Carpet in room dirty with large amounts dust all around the walls and near furniture. Air conditioning in room not going on check in- took an hour to cool room due to excessive heat and humidity in the space. On the flip side. Easy midnight walk from the airport and quiet room.
