The hotel has a charming building and a beautiful village setting, but it sadly suffers from maintenance issues and cleanliness problems in the rooms. The pool area is a highlight, thanks to a dedicated staff member. Although the hotel has potential, basic upkeep is lacking, which detracts from the overall experience.

The rooms were in serious need of attention, with cleanliness being an issue and old, peeling furniture. My first room wasn't vacuumed, and the bed in that room was uncomfortable.

The hotel offers a great value for money, particularly with the package that includes dinner, breakfast, and leisure facilities. The staff were incredibly attentive and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable, though there were a few minor hiccups with service speed. The room was spacious and comfortable, although it could use a few updates. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with some room for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the initial staff service was fantastic, I was really disappointed with the state of the room and the dining experience. The location is great, but I expected better cleanliness and quality given the price. Overall, it seemed like they could use some improvements.

The hotel has potential with its charming bar and restaurant staff, but it suffers from significant cleanliness and maintenance issues. Rooms were outdated and not in the best shape, which affected overall comfort. The service was hit or miss, and while the location has its merits, the experience was marred by several disheartening aspects.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location is perfect for exploring the beautiful surroundings, and I appreciated the warm welcome I received upon arrival. However, the room could use some serious upgrading as it felt quite outdated and uncomfortable. Breakfast was also a letdown with cold food and lackluster service. Overall, it was a decent experience but definitely not without its issues.
