Overall a nice hotel. My only issue was it wasn’t as clean as I’d expect. My sheets were stained which was really gross. There was also lots of dust in various areas of the room. I expect a bit more in terms of cleanliness when I’m staying in a hotel.

Our stay was enjoyable overall. The room was comfortable, and breakfast was good. The pool, though small, was clean and great for the kids. However, the staff often seemed tired and not very friendly, which could be improved.
