I would have like to have clear directions to the room from reception. There are many rooms in this complex, and we had to double back and ask for directions. No map was provided. In addition, the television was not working. Very ordinary. In room facilities, back to the 90s. One choice of tea bag, one choice of powdered, instant coffee. The experience was like camping in a room.

I would have liked easier access to the heated pool. I have a back problem so the ladder into the pool is no good for me so was unable to use it.
