Check the wi-fi findings before booking

Spacious apartment-style rooms, strong staff feedback, and a well-regarded pool are balanced by inconsistent cleanliness and maintenance, modest breakfast quality, sleep risks, and weak Wi-Fi evidence. The property suits travelers who prioritize space and facilities over polish and reliability.

Worth checking: 24 of the 608 reviews in our sample contain a complaint about smells and damp. See the evidence

Sleep is possible, but not reliably peaceful enough to earn a strong score. Many guests find it quiet and restful, with generally comfortable pillows and some good beds, but room-to-room noise, loud air-conditioning, road-facing rooms and occasional outside noise can disturb sleep. Light sleepers should request a quieter room away from the road.

Rooms

The rooms are a solid choice if you value space, though the bathrooms and beds are less consistent. Guests often praise the generous room size, views and comfortable beds, while some report uncomfortable mattresses or bathrooms that are not clean enough. Families and longer-stay guests will likely appreciate the extra room most.

How this page was made

We hold 608 reviews for this property and analyzed 608 reviews across 8 languages. Text matching and AI interpretation can miss nuance, sarcasm or translations. Repeated experiences, larger samples and independent sources are more useful than a single vivid quote.

Quotes, however, are only ever drawn from the 470 English reviews. Machine-translating a guest’s sentence would change their original wording.

We count mentions using text patterns. Complaints can come from a reviewer’s “disliked” field or negative wording in their review. These counts describe the reviews we hold, not the proportion of all guests who experienced an issue. “Recent” means the last 730 days.

Scores, section explanations and photo descriptions come from a model reading the source material using AI, last run 11 October 2026. Published photos may be old, staged or incomplete; AI cannot measure a room or verify a facility is currently open. Nearby places are mapped within 1500 m; walking times are estimates, not checked routes. Prices are observations for sample dates and will move.

We link to a review or its source page when an address is available. Source, rating, and month accompany quotes to help you locate them. Some links open a collection of reviews rather than the individual quote.
