A Satisfactory Stay

comfortable room friendly staff closed pool room cleaning
The location is ideal for visiting shops and the waterfront. Breakfast had a wide variety of options. I found the room very comfortable (the water pressure in the shower was great!). The staff were super friendly.
The pool was closed. I waited until 4 PM, but our room had not been cleaned (I then realized there was a button at the door to push that said 'make up my room').
