Staff was rude, took for ever to do check in, did not accept my passport as identification. The room i got smelled like Marijuana, so i changed it. The second room I got had a big stain (looked like blood) on the floor. And the 3rd room i got, the room smelled like mold. So, good luck!

Ok for a cheap hotel
The hotel is ok. The breakfast buffet was great, cereal, bread, fruit, waffles and coffee/juices. Plus sausages and eggs some days. The food and drink was replenished regularly. The pool was ok. The hotel had a cockroach infestation but they treated the hotel as there were dead cockroaches rather than live at the end.
