room cleaning shared jacuzzi impolite receptionist steep roads

i appreciated the room cleaning every day. everything smelled fresh and pleasant. location was also quite convenient, quiet and away from the main bustle, but still very near the center and the bus station. the shared jacuzzi was a plus.

the receptionist lacked courtesy during check-in. he explained the room procedures abrasively. the hotel is further from the bus station than advertised.

adequate stay overall

deep pool daily service lovely staff deceiving villa poor housekeeping unreliable wifi

the pool was deep enough (i enjoyed my time). room service happened daily. i found a restaurant and souvenir shop nearby. the staff at the souvenir shop were very nice.

the villa was a bit deceiving. there were many stairs not clearly advertised. i found the daily housekeeping poor, as they dropped off towels and made the bed but didn't clean much (just my opinion). the wifi did not work very well.
