Disliked: Cleanliness
Potentially the cleanliness could be an improvement, the garbage Shute didn’t look like it had been cleaned out or replaced for the whole 6 days we stayed. Making the hallway reek. Also room service could be added for stays? Everything else was fine just those 2 small things that I would suggest to the hotel resort

Disliked: Amenities
There were stains on the carpet when we first arrived aswell as sauce on the balcony wall. The amenities like the frying pan where broken aswell as a lack of a flipper for the pan.2 large ladels where provided but they were not useful when it came to things like eggs and pan cakes. There was also no vent in the bathroom and if you are staying for multiple days it risks mould growing so we had to open the balcony and bathroom door in hopes of avoiding that. The bed was made nicely and the room smelt ok.Staff where helpful when it came to providing toilet paper and bin bags

Everything was in excellent condition, however the shower drain was full of hair, which was pretty disgusting. Other than that, a pleasant stay.
