Decent Stay

convenient bar family friendly moldy curtain inefficient aircon
The pool area has a fantastic layout for families. The pool bar provides a convenient way to get refreshments. The location is also great as many attractions are within walking distance.
The room felt a little dated. I noticed some mold on the curtain in the room. The air conditioning did not work very well, so the room felt stuffy.
