We have stayed here before and LOVE the property. We had the suite this stay and the AC in the main room did not work but in the bedrooms it worked fine. Otherwise everything is fine!!

It was actually a pretty good place but when we got there our room hadn't properly been reserved as the only two bed available was closed for maintenance. When they asked the maintenance staff if it was available for use they said yes. However the toilet was not flushing. Apart from that the staff was actually very nice and helpful and the hotel facilities was clean and good
