I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and just renovated, which was a plus. Breakfast was great with a variety of options, including pancakes. The pool area was nice for relaxing, but the service at the front desk could be improved as it felt a bit pushy at times. Overall, it’s a good value for money, but the pushy sales tactics were a downside.

I had a fantastic experience at this resort. The room was spacious, clean, and equipped with modern amenities, making my stay quite comfortable. The pool area was lovely and provided a great spot to relax. However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially the breakfast timings. The staff were generally friendly, but I encountered a pushy sales pitch upon check-in which dampened the initial welcome.

I had a mixed experience at the hostel. While it had its drawbacks, like limited parking and a few missing amenities, there were definitely highlights too, such as the clean rooms and included breakfast. The staff was friendly and organized great activities. It’s conveniently located, though it was a bit disappointing that the accommodations didn’t meet all my needs.

I had a fantastic stay at Mad Monkey Village! The location is really convenient, just a short walk from the city center, and the facilities are top-notch. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The only downside was some noisy music in the common area, which could get a bit overwhelming at times. Overall, it was great value for money with the free breakfast and fun activities!

I had a decent experience at the hostel, enjoying clean linens, a fun taco night, and friendly staff, especially Deedee, who was super helpful. However, the bathrooms could use more attention and the pool looked uninviting. Overall, for the price paid, I felt it was good value for a hostel stay with some minor issues.
