"Comfortable and great location"

Great location, very comfortable place to recharge. The pool is great too for an early morning dip.

The lift was a bit touchy but nothing to write home about

便利なロケーションでした。部屋に冷蔵庫とポットがあるのは普通ですが、電子レンジと食器もひと通り用意されており朝食くらいなら部屋で用意できるのが素晴らしい。

シャワーカーテンがなく、気をつけてシャワーしても洗面まで水浸しになるところ。

Clean with a lovely bar and restaurant. Breakfast was varied and plenty full. Pool was a good size with loungers.
