Neue und moderne Unterkunft. Personal ist teils sehr freundlich, teils könnte es zuvorkommender sein. Extra Kosten trotz all inclusive, zu laute Musik 24/7. Essen ist definitiv keine 5 Sterne. Insg. wenig Aktivitäten in dem Hotel.

We had an excellent stay in this hotel, which has been completely renovated. The staff is very welcoming and attentive. The food served is of good quality and varied, and they also have several vegan options at breakfast, lunch and dinner.
