Less than a year old, this is a clean comfortable place to stay. Rooms include tea/coffee and biscuits. Bath has the basic shampoo, shower gel, soap. Nice large tubs that accomodate 2 people easily. Nice view of the waterfront and pool. Convenient buffet for breakfast and dinner with large range of choices. The staff was friendly but not always helpful.... More
