"The property itself was very nice and in a convenient location. The food was actually very good (only tried the buffet) and we really loved the 24h parking garage. The resort accommodates too many guests for its size. The pool was full at all times of the day and there were soo many kids! Great for families but I would skip if you are traveling with a partner or solo."

"Great location and a very beautiful rose garden for breakfast and lovely dinners. Rooms are large, but a little older; however, still very nice. The hotel food and drinks are VERY expensive. We are from the United States, and you can expect prices as much as New York City and Los Angeles for food and drinks. The staff was mostly friendly but not over-the-top accommodating. Morning staff at breakfast seemed irritable, and the front desk was hit or miss with friendliness"
