its ok, depending on what your after. We stayed in a very basic room on the bottom floor (two floors), the hotel itself if very concrete like. Here goes, enter off the main street down an alley way and into a small passage into the hotel (laundry services, little stalls in the alley way). Reception to the right of the small passage and to the left the "restaurant/bar" which overlooks a very long (length of the "u" shaped hotel, but in the middle of the "u" if you know what i mean). We had a ground floor room, all concrete floor, no coverings. To the left is a basin, mirror (very small vanity area??) and seperate toilet to this with non-soundproof sliding door. Lighting was dim and very orange/red - small glass window enables your other half to see what your doing!! To the right of the hotel room is the showe - again sliding wooden door? and very basic "public toilet type" shower area - again concrete! Air conditioner worked as did tv and cable channels. Mini bar provided. Very small room if you want for two people as the beds we had were two singles joined together (badly i might add), they were lopsided and so we basically slept apart because the join (divide!!) of the beds was uneven! Pool area is unshaded (bar the umbrelleas) and very open (given it is in the middle of the u shaped hotel. Hope this is detailed enough, I would personally go somewhere "quainter" and maybe a bit more intimate and friendlier.
