Very pleasantly surprised by this hotel. We booked this hotel as a "cheap and cheerful" place as we were visiting for Pride so knew we'd not be spending much time in the hotel. We weren't expecting it to be anywhere near as good as it was. We have stayed in the neighboring hotels and apartments and this is definitely on a par if not better! Don't get me wrong, there are some things that could be improved but on the whole a good hotel!
I will start with the good things......the grounds, pool, bar area, communal areas are all very good, well kept, clean etc. The outside bar area has a very laid back feel to it and of course the drinks are always flowing! Hoorah!
The staff are ALL friendly especially the reception and the entertainments people! ( didn't catch her name but the lady on the entertainments team who wears blue instead of red was fantastic and very enthusiastic, i think she was born for that job!!!! ) The team are not pushy and will leave you alone if you want to just chill!!! ) They were all good.
The rooms are standard rooms in 5 blocks, very clean and we had a good view out onto the poolside.
The pool was a little cold for us but was extremely clean and was big enough!
On leaving we were offered a courtesy room to have a shower etc without even asking and at no extra cost!
There's a shop, hairdresser etc if you need them
The bad things.....
The food is bog standard all inclusive food. I feel that i am being overly harsh by saying this was bad as its just what you'd expect. Breakfasts and lunches were ok but we ate out every night except one ( this was always our plan in fairness! ) The booking system for the evening meal was odd and too much hassle! We are probably more fussy that most where food is concerned!
The maids do a cracking job and are friendly but are very noisy when moving furniture around to clean in the mornings!!!!
The sun beds are far too close to each other, they are crammed in around the pool with very little room! It wasn't too bad for us because it wasn't overly busy and there weren't too many children running around but i can imagine at peak times it could be an issue!
All in all we were very pleased with our stay and have remarked numerous times it was better than we thought it was going to be!!! I'd recommend it and i think we'd stay here again!
