10/10 Excellent
"Simply amazing. Communication, personal touch, breakfast everything I can think of was top notch. Fatiha was a star. The lady at breakfast (sorry didn't catch her name) so friendly. The rooms was perfect and loved the terrace for a chill out zone to read or do a little workout. The only negative was we had to leave. Thanks to all the staff."
