I had a very enjoyable week at the hotel. The rooms were clean, modern, and spacious, providing great comfort during my stay. The staff were incredibly helpful and made me feel welcome. However, the air conditioning unit in my room was quite noisy, which was a bit of a downside. Overall, the value for the price paid was excellent, especially with the fast Wi-Fi available.

I had a really enjoyable week at the Igar hotel in July. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and modern, making my stay very pleasant. The staff went above and beyond to help with any questions I had, and the internet connection was fantastic. The breakfast was also quite filling compared to other places I've stayed. However, the air conditioning unit was quite noisy, which detracted a bit from the overall experience.
