Good stay.
My stay was lovely, i enjoyed the place so much.
Teddy
The Hotel was nice, staff at the hotel was friendly as well. The swimming pool was clean (except the kiddies part, which was SUPER dirty). Bowling, Putt Putt and the little desert drive train thingy was super fun and all extremely cheap. My recommendation is definitively the restaurant (500g Sirloin steak, chips - PHENOMENAL). The Sunday buffet was also really nice! The part that I would not recommend is the Casino. My casino card was blocked in under 10 minutes and I stood there like a fool waiting for people to get back to me while they took the card somewhere. They were then also extremely arrogant and rude at the Casino. They didn't apologize, they just looked at me. It was very unpleasant. I didn't lose any money, I just cashed out and left with all my friends. Id absolutely AVOID the casino. I enjoyed swimming the most and everything else too :)

Good service

Erano anni che non vedevo un hotel con pretese ridotto in uno stato simile.
Rumoroso, pessimo ristorante, camere fatiscenti, e internet inutilizzabile
