The rooms are comfy and the beds are VERY COMFORTABLE. First floor rooms have a spectacular view and ingress/egress to the inner courtyard garden! The Crocodile Inn restaurant very cozy and ritzy, with holiday decor empathizing it. Holiday decor in the front check in lobby a premonition of coziness and relaxation to come. The hotel complex is also surrounded by lemon trees, NICE! Also, staff is friendly especially the restaurant team!
