I recently enjoyed my stay at this hotel, and while it had its strengths, it also had some notable flaws. The cleanliness of the facilities was impressive, and the staff were really hardworking and friendly. However, I found the food options to be quite limited, especially for vegetarians, and the room I stayed in was showing signs of aging. Overall, it was decent for the price, but there's definitely room for improvement.

The suite had a double bedroom and a lounge area, but it felt a bit run down with some issues like a broken bin and non-working soap dispensers. Overall, it could use a makeover.

Overall, it was a great vacation spot with nice pools and engaging daytime activities for the kids.
