The hotel boasts a beautiful pool area and is well-maintained, making it an appealing choice. The staff members are typically efficient and helpful, which contributes to a pleasant atmosphere. However, the dining experiences can be hit or miss, especially at breakfast, and the overall quality of food could use improvement. Additionally, the room comfort varies, particularly with the bed quality that does not meet four-star expectations.
