"The room was spacious and clean with a balcony. Room was equipped with a small coffee maker, microwave, and mini fridge. The staff at the hotel we're friendly and helpful. The pool was however closed for maintenance ,which was not disclosed when I booked so that was a bummer to learn on arrival. And there was NO breakfast served during pur stay, you had to buy additional breakfast while there and the prices for the type of breakfast were not accommodating."
