We took a triple room and it was nice and spacious. The staff are very courteous and nice. The waiter at the Bistro even got us a dessert that was not on the menu, from their other restuarant. The restaurant on the fourth floor was also great. The buffet breakfast was good quality.Nice pool and leisure facilities. More
