Peter C. Couples Australia, May 22, 2013
A comfortable home away from home!

Friendly staff, large room, everything worked in spite of frequent power blackouts (back-up generator)
6.7
The bathroom walls/tiles were mildewy and could have been cleaner; the floor of the room was inclined to be gritty, even though it was wiped over with a damp cloth, daily; Some reception staff were inclined to be arrogant in their manner, others were very pleasant and helpful; The breakfasts were good with reasonable variety and the staff very friendly and helpful; the food in the main dining area at night was disappointing - there are much better places to eat at night outside of the hotel.
