The staff were generally attentive. I appreciate the welcome drink offered upon arrival. The room i got had complimentary bottled water, replaced daily. The hotel HAD manicured gardens, it was enjoyable to walk through.

The service was inconsistent at times. The pool depth was a problem as it was too deep in sections. This made it difficult to relax. It disrupted the peace i was looking for.
