The property is clean, staff was polite, the rooms are spacious and clean. I would recommend having pillows that are different styles of firmness. The pillows are great but very soft and I am more of a firmer pillow lover. The breakfast was a great spread. I give this property a 10/10. Definitely recommend and will book again during my travels.
