Overall it was ok
Pros:

The staff are welcoming and friendly. The area is vibrant and central for lots of things to do.

Cons:

The flooring was damaged my husband almost tripped and fell walking out to the balcony.

There is limited sugar.

No bottled water available

The shower door doesn’t close properly and water falls out of the shower into the floor.

The parking walls are quite narrow. If you are not careful and have a big vehicle you can really bump into the walls.

A pleasant stay
Pros:

The cleanliness is amazing (they clean my room every single day, that is perfect). The staffs are very warm and welcoming, they're polite in their approach and kind in their words.

Cons:

Lack of fridge in the room and the fact that there's no water other than going to the lobby for water. If water can be kept on each floor that'll be if easy access at least. Why keep hot water kettle with tea,etc. And no water for the kettle
No bidet (I think this is a national thing)
No individual iron box, that's not helpful!
I had to ask before I got a dental kit.

These are points for improvement not criticism.

Mistake not to be made
Pros:

nothing

Cons:

The guest for who the lodge was booked, complained bitterly, indicating he did not feel safe as onsite there were people walking around with guns. Water was not given, and the staff did not assist when required. He had to check out a day later with no refund given by the lodge. 6 days were booked. absolute robbery.
