HELLENE, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Due to flight disruptions we arrived late and had to leave early the next morning so we didn’t get to use most of the facilities. Staff were very helpful with us arriving late and the room was very well appointed. The only negative for us was that it was fully booked when we tried to stay the next time. I would stay here again.
