Basic but nice hotel with a view of the river. Clean. Decent breakfast. Furniture is worn. Decent place to stay for the price. Seems to be a popular choice for birdwatchers.

Fascinating archeological history discovered during the building.
Fantastic salads and toasted sandwiches available and a comfortable lounge/dining room in which to eat. Good wine and beer options too

The resort needs upgrading specially on the rooms that are quite old and basic. Food was okay and staff could be more friendly to the customers.

Nice place with a beautiful castle on top of the hills
Nice a clean hotel
Front desk plays several roles and due to that we waited 5-8 minutes for her to come because she was preparing dinner fue others customers
Hotel 100% clean and convenient

Very modern recently constructed hotel. The centre of town is a steep 5 minute walk up steps or a ramp. A gentler walk is available up the road. Lively views over the river.

Nice room and staff. Parked our motorcycles on car park which felt safe. Noisy at night though with slamming doors and other noise

Modern hotel with lovely view of the river. The main part of the town is up the hill from the hotel. There is a nice area to sit and a pool out front. Room, which was a little small, had good air conditioning and WiFi and TV with lots of English channels. There is a useful bar/ cafe outside. A fairly small modern hotel in a good position.

The hotel staff was very nice, but the room so small that you fell into the bed from the entrance door. My husband hit his head when he tried to get up in the night due to the door knob.

Very disappointing experience. The walls were paper thin. The room was bare minimum, bad bed, pillows rock hard. Could hear water draining from the rooms above all night, and there were rat droppings on the patio. Only plus was the location.
