The apartment was spacious and clean. The hotel provided a family-friendly environment. I found the location good as well.

The steepness of the ramps was a problem. Breakfast was poor with little choice. I reminded me of a second-class citizen at meal times because people paying for food seemed to receive special treatment.

The apartments offer ample space. Our apartment had a well-equipped kitchen (it was enough for our cooking needs). The balcony provided a relaxing spot for evening enjoyment (we spent many pleasant evenings there).

The gym equipment selection was very limited.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The cleaners worked tirelessly to keep everything super clean. You could see they worked long hours. They were always smiling and friendly. They were great too.

The breakfast had very little choice. People paying extra for food received special treatment. We were treated as second class citizens, quite unfair, though the location was perfect!
