Clean, friendly staff, but no atmosphere
The place is clean, the staff are nice and helpful, but there isn’t much of an atmosphere. One of the two swimming pools looked completely abandoned and dirty. Unless you have activities during the day, there isn’t much to do at the hotel. The food is average too.

Assessment already stated. You should redesign your questionnaire & be satisfied with whatever respondents give you & not require mandatory entries. So this is the last time I’ll respond to a request to complete a “survey.“ I suspect this is all AI stuff & no human will set eyes on this, let alone consider the comments !!?
