"Jeg vil under ingen omstændigheder anbefale dette sted til nogle!! Hotellet er nærmest forladt vi var næsten de eneste gæster som boede der. Stranden ekstremt beskidt at det ikke kan benyttes. Vandlandet er helt ødelagt og beskidt, jeg og min familie tog derhen for at bade og fik et syn vi ikke havde forventet og var virkelig skuffet over stedet. Poolen på hotellet er virkelig lille og ekstremt kloret at din hud bliver irriteret af det og dine øjne svier dagen lang af alt den klorin der er i...
