The aircon did not work, the rooms were not well cleaned with dirt and leaves on the carpet. The carpet was full of stains and the rooms were dusty. The pool was being refurbished, which was not clearly communicated prior to our arrival. Overall a disappointing experience and one that we won’t be repeating.

Our room was dirty with dust on arrival. Our little boy also found a used mask under the bed when looking for a toy that went under it. It also wasn't serviced properly every day, i.e no toilet paper or new towels one day then no sugar or coffees the next. The shower was also hard to use as didn't have a proper shower mixer on it. The pool was also not keeped clean and was getting greener every day

TV barely worked, parking was annoying and there was insufficient spots available for the hotel. Our room was not accessibility friendly, tripped on the carpet more than I usually trip on things and there was no microwave. Additionally the bath was clogged and the handle was broken too.

It was like a rave was happening till about 11pm, then some ungodly hour in the morning, they decided to do laundry collection with trolleys that sounded like a tin foil airplane slowly crashing through the entire complex. I could also not tell you what the original carpet colour is or was in our room.

Stayed in the apartment section and while they were lovely rooms, we unfortunately were missing a couple of key items in ours and it hadn’t been cleaned/checked properly from previous customers. We had no towels, no teaspoons and no oven rack or tray to bake on. Plus the kitchen bench was sticky and bathroom drawer was filthy with hair and rubbish. We normally love staying here as it’s convenient and modern but lacked servicing this time round sadly.

I was dead tired when I got there and there happened to be some young cheer leading group there who made quite a bit of noise when I was trying to sleep after I checked in. And of course the room I was assigned was right next to the playground there and there were kids literally screaming just outside the window.
