Old, hot, noisy and tasteless
The resort is old and tired, no upgrades have been done. No air conditioning, so the rooms are extremely hot. The ceiling fan was noisy, so we couldn't even use that. The food in the restaurant is average and over priced.

Decent place to stay
Decent hotel albeit dated. Enjoyed the geothermal pools and appreciated the long opening hours of the facilities (6am-11pm).

Great place
Great facilities, got a bit warm though. The pools were spa temp, too hot to swim in, and there was no aircon. The ceiling fan was adequate once I found the switch to make it blow down not upwards, ie it was still in winter mode.
