Overall, I had a pleasant stay. House keeping needs improvement.
Pros:

I really appreciated the check-in staff. They were friendly, welcoming, and very accommodating, which made the check-in process pleasant and easy.

Cons:

I was not completely satisfied with how the beds were made. The bedding did not look very neat or properly tucked in, and it gave the impression that the beds were made somewhat hurriedly. I would have appreciated a little more attention to detail.

Our stay was relaxing and a great get away for a weekend away from home
Pros:

The staff was insanely friendly, I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a hotel and was treated and seen by the staff like here 10/10

Cons:

Our room seemed like it hadn’t been cleaned really, and the size is kinda deceiving from pictures online. Nothing crazy but overall good

Fantastic location but facilities not as advertised.
Pros:

Location is brilliant.

Cons:

The pool is no longer available - without any explanation or notice and we chose this hotel for a mixture of location & pool.
The heating/aircon/water infrastructure is very noisy
