Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Yes the room was full of stunk and bad smell and when I asked the staff to change they start moaning about that, I asked for room service and they told me sorry they can’t because they are short staffed! Poor experience
Nice room , fantastic shower room , lovely service. Amazing value for money. Highly recommend.
