Disliked: Amenities
Overall, our stay was okay. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and we really enjoyed the location as well as the outdoor areas, especially the hammocks between the trees. Parking was also easy and convenient.
That said, we expected the room especially the bathroom to be a bit cleaner. The shared kitchen could also use more attention: it wasn’t very clean, the refrigerators were not clean, and out of three electric kettles, only one was working. Overall, we expected a bit more from the kitchen. The photos looked nicer than the actual space, the bar shown in the pictures wasn’t working during our 4-night stay, and the pools were also a little smaller than we expected.

El lugar muy cerca de todo y céntrico. Personal amable y lugar limpio. Nada más ponerle atención al tema del parqueo, no hay. Por lo cual hay que estar lidiando con parqueos externos incurriendo en otros gastos.
