The location is excellent, it was so easy to access transport. The breakfast well good variety, kitchen staff was super nice! However, the spa was a disaster, zero professionalism, I had to cancel my treatment because of the staff. The room was extremely hot, they also put us in the room where the AC fans were, it was sooooo loud ! Front desk said there was nothing they could do ...however I do believe they could have at least changed rooms. For the price we paid, it was too inconvenient.

My stay here was average. The rooms were advertised as no -smoking but an ashtray was in the room and the whole building felt stale. When using the pool staff members were smoking in a side room with the door open. The pool and fitness area are in a lower floor and lighting was very poor. The water was cloudy and didn’t feel clean. The sauna and Turkish bath were okay. There was a foul smell coming from the shower and the cleaning staff sprayed cleaning chemicals to try to address it which helped some. One bottle of water was provided each day and when the cleaning staff forgot to leave one the front desk said to wait until the next day. The breakfast was simple and I was denied to fill up my water bottle at the water machine. It was a cold rainy week, so going outside wasn’t very appealing, and staying in this atmosphere wasn’t refreshing.
