7.8/10

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which offered a nice and comfortable atmosphere. The rooms were quite clean and well-kept, making it a cozy place to unwind. However, I found the dining options, especially the breakfast, to be lacking in variety. The pool area was definitely a highlight, well-maintained and inviting. Overall, the experience was good, but I wish the Wi-Fi had been complimentary instead of an extra charge.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel; the rooms were clean, modern, and spacious, making it a comfortable experience overall. The staff were genuinely welcoming, which added to the friendly atmosphere. Unfortunately, the breakfast options left a bit to be desired, and the dining area could use some improvements. While the swimming pool was enjoyable, it wasn't as expansive as I hoped. Overall, the value for the price was decent, but the limited breakfast was a letdown.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were quite spacious and modern, providing a comfortable experience. I enjoyed a nice view from my balcony, but I did find the breakfast options a little underwhelming. The pool area was relaxing and well-kept, which added to the overall enjoyment of my time there. While it was a good value for money, I think some amenities could use an upgrade.
