Room good size. Room/hotel needs refreshing, chipped paint, grout missing, tired. Pool needs a good clean tiles grubby. Pool bar or music doesnt happen during week. QR code to order doesnt allow special requests eg no anchovies, doesnt have all drinks eg soda water. Aircon not great in room had it set to 5° and it was still cooler in hallway.

We absolutely LOVED the hotel, however certain elements put a dampener on it... literally! The poorly designed bathroom had a shower door that didn't close properly and therefore leaked everywhere. Someone had left wet towels in the top of the cupboard which stunk the room out. Credit to them, they offered to move us but we'd just unpacked and thought the smell would go away. It did not, and we were surprised housekeeping didn't notice the smell. The bathroom was extremely cramped with a huge bath taking up most of the room, the shower wedged between it and the vanity and the toilet placed under the vanity, very strange. Surely get rid of the bath and space things out a bit better. We probably had the worst balcony in the whole hotel. A tiny, concrete thing with no shade so that the metal chairs were too hot to sit on. We did expect more for the amount of money we paid, but I think we were just unlucky and should have taken up the offer to move rooms. The rest of the place was fantastic.
