"Hotel peaked years ago. Staff is very arrogant - had reserved a king bed months and months ago and they didnt have any . Constant weddings and such loud music from the weddings late into the night. Food overpriced. Not worth the high price tag . Do airbnb or Verbo. This is a pass"

"I only stayed one night because I had to catch a flight the next day. The hotel itself has potential. There are a lot of activities for the guests and families. The room (furniture) was a bit outdated and needs new linen. Overall the hotel needs to be renovated."
