The staff were really helpful and friendly, especially at the front desk. I liked the hotel's location close to main attractions. The large rooms were great and had plenty of space. i had a nice stay.
the carpet felt a little damp in places, it was not great. There were also rat traps under the bed, and I found that quite alarming. I noticed the pool didn't have enough towels for all the guests, it was annoying.

restaurant policy unreasonable circumstance
The facilities was fairly affordable for the area.
The restaurant policy bothered me. I wanted eat food at the bar, and they did not allow it. I had to eat by myself in the room behind the restaurant. This felt unreasonable given the circumstances.
