clean room helpful staff excellent breakfast tiny pool small double bed room expensive gym
The room was very clean. The staff was helpful. They were kind and polite. The breakfast offered a wide variety. It was excellent. The front desk staff was excellent.
The pool is tiny. It is not one you can use to do laps. The small double bed room felt way too small for the price. It's 10 euros per person a day.

room noise mosquito bites
the room i had was far too noisy i could hear everything outside. i also got quite a few mosquito bites while in the room a real annoyance. it was hard to relax and get a good night's sleep with all the disturbances. i really think they need to address the soundproofing and pest control issues .

underwhelming stay
extra gym cost small room
the breakfast was quite extensive, i guess, offering a wide selection.
the gym access cost extra. ten euros per person per day. the small double room felt cramped considering the price. the pool was more like a large jacuzzi than a proper swimming pool.
