It’s quiet with a good spa, food good. I didn’t like being told every morning breakfast is not included so it’s ok to charge you, every day, once is enough. Staff were really good otherwise, nothing was too much trouble.

ALL GOOD EXCEPT FOR AMENITIES OPEN TO PUBLIC
MY ONLY REAL COMPLAINT IS THAT THE POOL IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. THIS MEANS THAT IN THE EVENING YOU GET MIDDLE AGED BULLIES (ALL MEN) WHO THINK THEY OWN THE PLACE AND ARE LITERAL BULLIES AGAINST THE HOTEL GUESTS. MOST HOTEL GUESTS ARE KIND AND RETREAT, BUT I HAD TO STAND FOR MY RIGHTS AND FRANKLY I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. IT'S A REAL SHAME. Also, there are NO real channels in English apart from the boring BBC World and Al Jazeera. No CNN, for example, which should be a must. Finally, there are cell towers right in front of some hotel rooms. This gave me a headache and I had to request a room change, which they kindly did. Customer service was excellent but they need to fix the above.
