4/5
The hotel is new and nicely designed. Service was excellent, rooms were nice, and breakfast was wonderful. However, I booked this place partly because of the pool and gym, both of which were not great. The pool is not so inviting, next to a very loud generator, it doesn't get much sun during the day, and is in full view of the restaurant - not a single person used it all week. The gym was tiny, missing weights, and didn't have anything to disinfect with. Was pretty gross at times. Overall it's a good place to stay in town, but it could be improved.

The bed was well prepared since bedsheets and blankets were kept clean. In addition, the room was more attractive for a healthy sleep. Apart from that, the food was were prepared since it was available on time , I really enjoyed the breakfast.
