Given that the reservation was for a different accommodation than the one actually made available, the property is logistically well-located but has the following critical issues:

Google, March 2026, rated 2/5 by this guest

We book a room for 2 adults, one child and one infant and they give us a room with very small room with a small double bed and one sofa, there is no place for infant 💔💔💔

I asked for another room, but they wouldn't give it to me.

Even after requesting a replacement, nothing could be done.

A slow check-in7 of 771 in 11 reviews

Also, the staff does not allow you to check in before 17:00, a really uncomfortable time especially for those arriving from another region after a long journey and need to settle in earlier.
