“I see a modern property that caters to various needs, offering both private meeting spaces for business and a family-friendly atmosphere for leisure stays; the on-site dining aims to accommodate different tastes with a diverse menu, also the location places guests near famous golf courses and local sights. However, some reports suggest the restaurant execution can be inconsistent, especially regarding dinner service. Overall, I'd say it's a value-conscious choice with some potential highs and lows.”
