Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The size of the room was acceptable but the default for 3 adults was a king bed, they provided a portable bed free of charge which improved the situation. The mattress of the portable bed was in terrible shape and had huge stains on it. They accepted to replace it. While we booked the room for 3 people, the glasses, coffee mugs and towels were provided for 2 people and we needed to constantly remind the staff. In more than one instance the "clean" towels had stains on them. They did not provide conditioner and body lotion was not there either. Breakfast buffet was very limited and not with many healthy options.

Hotel has a very good location Shop and food around hotel which are opened late so you don't have to move far to grab some food Hotel is clean and rooms are big and comfortable. Only problem is that hotel doesn't say that it's also a long bar with very loud music in the evening until late in the night Unfortunately loud music and bass can be heard in your bed. Sometimes I surprised myself singing some of their songs

⭐☆☆☆☆ Very disappointing stay — poor management + cleanliness issues throughout. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this hotel stay was truly disappointing + far below expectations. The management of the hotel is extremely poor; the property needs a lot more attention to cleanliness and maintenance. Room: My room smelled of smoke, + the windows, sills, curtains were covered in a layer of dust and dirt. Room smelt damp, + the air conditioning was noisy. The bathroom tiling needs repair + the bath itself had a grimy film at the drain end, which clearly hasn’t been cleaned properly due to the fixed shower screen making access difficult. Amenities: Towels are old + completely lacking in softness. Pillows were among the worst I’ve encountered — cheap foam, no 'give'. When I requested a feather pillow, I was given a small, damp, lumpy pillow in an oversized pillowcase. Housekeeping: Service was inconsistent + poorly managed. Housekeeping staff came to my room to take the bathroom scales for another guest (!) — despite my objections — and I didn’t get them back until 4 days later, after repeatedly asking. The corridors were also in need of a proper vacuum. Facilities: Rooftop area + gym: really dirty and poorly maintained. Tables/chairs covered in grime. Spa staff sleep overnight in treatment rooms -is this legal?! Overall: The staff were friendly and polite, but clearly poorly managed and unsupported. This hotel desperately needs leadership, training, and proper cleaning systems!
