"Me and two friends were here visiting for 2 nights June 2026 - Excellent view and location if you don't want to be in the center of the town. We were able to walk to the town in 15 mins. The breakfast buffet was great; large selection of food and drinks. The staff was very friendly and we were able to check-in to our room around 10am as it was ready then. Very nice pool area. We had the pizza from the restaurant and it was the best wood fire pizza I have ever had and I am particular when it...
