We felt the rooms looked like army barracks from the ourside, but the inside surprised us; it was more comfortable than we would have expected. The bathroom was spacious with a big walk-in shower, and the room provided room for a fridge and a little seat. Unfortunately, despite the room's comfort, everything about the hotel screamed faded glory; an early 80's american style. Although the room was clean the pool wasn't; the water smelled odd and we saw bandaids floating around, also in the jacuzzi area. Dinner was average, but what was funny is that the restaurant seemed to be used as a personell hangout; very loud music, people walking in and out to have a beer at the bar. We were grateful that the waiter at some point asked whether we preferred the music turned down a little (because honestly we could barely hear each other), but to us it only confirmed this hotel has seen better days. The location isn't very interesting or cozy next to the main road either.
