Spacious clean rooms. There is a casino and stale smoke smell in the foyer. Nice pool area with garden where you can get drinks. Cafe for cool drinks and sweets. Restaurant, ten pin bowling alley, basic putt-putt. Nice and entertaining for kids too. Safe feeling with lots of security presence near casino.
