i was concerned at some negative reviews i read. i just had a good week at this hotel. the staff were helpful and charming. i liked the pool and sauna, and there was also a hammam. i was pleased that breakfast was excellent, and the room was refreshed every day with clean towels.
the decor feels tired and some parts of the building are showing its age. but i still liked my stay.
