"The hotel is spotlessly clean and well kept. There were lots of staff on hand. The beds were so comfortable. The pool area was clean and cool, the perfect reprieve from the heat. The food in the restaurant was delicious. Would recommend anyone to stay at this lovely hotel!"
"We enjoyed stay here. The staff are very helpful and friendly. They gave us fresh fruits and wine every night. They also gave us souvenir and complementary taxi ride to train stations. It’s very nice people. We will stay here again."
"Breakfast is a little bit strange. It's served by the employee and choice is limited. A lot of sweets - pastries, candies, chocolate, etc.
More curbs than you need for Breakfast"
