good hotel, main pluses are the huge 50m outdoor pool and the gym/fitness facilities. Didn’t eat dinner at hotel so can’t comment on that. Breakfast was pretty average. Rooms were clean and nice but only ok. Corridors were run down and smelt bad. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

One point to note: the requirement for men to wear...
