10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful stay here! Will definitely be back. Enjoyed the area inside & out. The facilities like pool table, bar, restaurant, room service, complementary breakfast & outdoor pool + garden surrounds with nearby cafes was perfect! Great getaway for us & perfect for short & long stays. We stayed 2 nights but could easily do a week here if thats what you're looking for."
