Perfect experience

Everything was wonderful. The hotel is very well located, close to the city's main tourist attractions. The apartment is comfortable, extremely clean, and has all the amenities for guests' comfort. We stayed for 4 days and we didn't lack for anything. In addition, they have an excellent staff, fully prepared to deal with guests. Especially Mr. Succes and Mrs. Merlyn. We had some special needs regarding our check-out time, and they kindly helped us. We are very grateful to both for making our experience even better.

6/10 Good

The hotel was under staffed and no amenities. I had to call the front desk 5 times to get towels. Bar and snack bar close at 3pm so nothing available in the evening when we returned from the parks. The room itself was very clean and well worth it.
