the apartment was spacious upon arrival and had a great sitting area for evenings.
I was disappointed the bar closed so early at 5 pm. my superior studio was not superior, it was smaller than the family studio. i discovered ants up the wall and on the curtain. The reception only provided ant killer.

The apartment was spacious and comfortable.. It had all the facilities I needed. I also had a big balcony to eat outside. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
The photos online were a bit misleading. The bar area did not match the pictures, and the food options were limited to pizzas and toasties. Cleaners didn't visit . I had to request toilet paper and empty the bins myself.

wonderful stay!

open parkingclean hotelbig terraceunstable bed
i stayed for 3 nights and found the open car park very convenient. the hotel was clean, which i really appreciated. the big apartment was a plus, with a bedroom, living room including kitchen, a private bathroom, and a sizable terrace next to the pool. i loved having all that space!
I noticed that the bed moved quite a bit when i turned over. It wasn't very stable and somewhat disturbed my sleep.
Rooms

our room featured a well-equipped kitchen, complete with a fridge including a freezer, a microwave, and a two-burner cooktop which i found really useful for preparing meals. there was also effective air conditioning available in both the living room and bedroom.

I liked that the kitchen had good cooking utensils, and this meant i could easily make a nice breakfast each morning and even cook a dinner in the evening. i did not have to worry about buying extra pots or pans. That was great.

Acceptable, but Several Issues Exist

The apartment was a decent size for the price I paid. I found the apartment acceptable.
The mattresses were quite uncomfortable. They seemed to have a metal frame. This made the edges of the combined single mattresses very hard, annoying. I did not sleep well.
