    amazing, amazing, amazing

    The staff allowed for an easy extension of our stay without overcharging, such a relief! Parking right outside our Superior Double Studio made it super convenient, especially during the rainy days. Plus, the on-site restaurant served really good meals.

    100% recommend 😊❤️

    fresh salads
    cozy apartment
    cramped space
    lack of microwave

    The chopped salads were so fresh, and don't even get me started on the dining options nearby-Patacca just blew me away with their local flair.

    Could use some tweaking with those two large beds in the same space, felt a bit cramped.

    The staff was friendly and helpful, assisting us with

    Coeliac meals and sharing great local recommendations. The room could benefit from minor maintenance, as the shower tray nearly overflowed . Otherwise, we had a pleasant time enjoying the restaurant offerings and relaxing by the pool.
