Book a newer hotel. This one needs updating.

The hotel is dated and needs improvement. The TVs and beds were old and need revitalization.

Room was spacious and updated. Breakfast was solid buffet, slightly above the average 3 star chain hotel breakfast. Basketball court and squash court available for free use with rentals included which was a big plus. Room service offered for breakfast and dinner but menu is fairly limited. Staff was very friendly. Pool looked nice but no AC so it was unusable which I read in other reviews so may not be fixed for future stays. Grounds were nice with a nice walking trail, volleyball net and plenty of green space. Great value for price.
