"The pool was really good. Our room was a little tired and not very private when sitting outside. There was a bit of noise from the laundry/bin area right behind our unit, with washing machines and dryer going often during the night. Most of the staff were very friendly. We had a poolside room, if we go back we will try to book an Oceanside room, they seemed to be quieter and have been updated. In general we enjoyed our stay."
