Fantastic stay

The room was spacious. It included a private outdoor space (a great feature. The comfortable motel room included everything we needed. Great access to the hot pools was also a major plus.
I noticed tea and coffee were provided but there were no hot chocolate sachets.

The shared kitchen was excellent and clean. Toilets were also very clean. I found it easy to access with the kitchens and bathroom facilities nearby in short walking distance. This made meal preparation very convenient.
