“In my opinion, this hotel presents a mixed experience. While the resort has a lively atmosphere with its nightclub and caters well to families with its dedicated kids' club, some aspects, like the upkeep of the rooms, need attention. It's a solid choice for those prioritizing entertainment and family-friendly amenities, but setting expectations appropriately is key.”
