Hotel Olivewood has a lovely aesthetic and provides a clean environment, but my experience left much to be desired. The breakfast options were extremely limited, and I encountered some unhelpful staff during a stressful time when I lost my belongings. Overall, the hotel has great potential, but there are significant areas requiring improvement.

I had a really nice stay at Hotel Olivewood, but there were a few things that could use improvement. The location is amazing, set on a beautiful golf course, which made for a tranquil getaway. However, my experience was marred a bit by some slow service and an issue with my shower drainer that flooded the bathroom. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would probably come back, especially for the comfy bed and peaceful atmosphere.
