8.6/10 Excellent! (1,010 reviews)
Great position and room was very good. Problem was humidity. Had to have the air con on all the time, otherwise the walls dripped with moisture and the floor became very wet which was an issue for my not very mobile husband. The pool was lovely and in good repair.

Very small balcony with a large tree encroaching on it. Pool didn’t have a hand rail to support elderly or disabled people to get in or out. Fire alarm went off twice in one day. Rooms were clean but doors were in need of repair.
