My experience at the hotel was largely positive, especially appreciating the clean and well-maintained facilities. The kids absolutely loved the children's pools and play areas, which kept them entertained throughout our stay. The food at the buffet was a highlight, providing a great variety and quality. However, while the room was comfortable, it could use a bit more space. Overall, it offered excellent value for the family-friendly amenities and activities.
