nice pool easy location available taxi unhelpful staff shower mold
The pool was a nice size. The location made travelling easy. Most of the time taxis were available at the hotel. I also liked the lounge cove bar in the evening.
Some staff did not try to help me. They seemed bothered when I asked questions. I saw mold in the corners of the shower.
