Mum and Daughter Trip

We had a lovely time we were close to many tourist attractions which allowed us to visit a few. The hotel itself was clean and comfortable. The food was well presented and very filling and tasty. The only downside was that the room had no fridge. A necessity to keep water bottles cold in the beautiful hot days that we had.
