great foodtired hotelpoor slot
the food for breakfast and dinner was really good with plenty of variety.
The hotel is very tired and needs a revamp. i also think you need to be aware that you think you are in a hotel but you will probably be in apartment blocks. for all inclusive, you cannot eat at your preferred times. You are allocated a slot, very poor.
