Zahra, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The exterior and common areas are nice but the hotel is dirty. All coushions in common areas are stained and clearly dirty. The room was extremely humid and smelled like mold, which was clearly visible in the shower. With the excellent of maybe 3 staff members out of maybe 10+ that I came in contact with, were friendly. Everyone else seemed bothered when asked for help, especially the staff at the general dining area. The exterior is nice but not worth the stay. This property is also far from the main beach area with nearby restaurants so research the area before booking.
