spacious rooms beautifully designed rooms scenic setting overbearing salespeople difficult relaxation malfunctioning app
i liked the spacious rooms. the rooms were beautifully designed and immaculately maintained. the breakfast had a wide variety of fresh options. it was served in a scenic setting.
the hotel was quite busy . it made it difficult to fully relax. the salespeople near the beachfront were a bit overbearing at times. the app used for restaurant bookings didn't always work.
