    The place met my expectations. The room was spacious, modern and well kept. There’s plenty of staff working on the property at all times. It’s really well maintained and feels safe for a solo traveler. The food was the main highlight for me, from...

    All the employees of the hotel were absolutely fantastic and we really enjoyed having drinks on the lookout whilst the sun was setting (drinks were delivered to the top of the lookout by a pulley)!
