Very clean and nice hotel with friendly staff providing you with dining and sightseeing options just upon check-in. We stay in apparently renovated room with pool view and it was excellent, with only a small note: they should add small fridge in it.
Restaurant on premises is great and very reasonably priced! Food was very good!!!
Will surely stay here again!

A great place to stay
We had a modern room that over looked the pool. The car park across the road was easy to access and though reception was busy, we had access to the room an hour earlier than expected which was great.
