Pros:

Great room, everything as expected.

Cons:

We wanted to use the pool, but the are was too dark and there was water everywhere. It's best not to mention the spa.
As for breakfast, it was terrible, from the coffee to the quality of the food. It's also worth mentioning that you can only eat and drink coffee from disposable tableware.

Booked a king room and was not given one at check in. Was told there was nothing that could be done about it.

Our room was not what we booked and it was severely over priced

Good location, not clean
Pros:

The location was good, nice pool and breakfast.

Cons:

We had to wait almost an hour to get into our room (no apology), the room wasn't clean- the surfaces weren't all cleaned off, no pillow cases when we got there until housekeeping came in without knocking for pillows and another time for no towels, didn't knock either time. Housekeeping staff were arguing loudly in the hall with vulgar language. Our 7 year old son could hear them. There were used contacts on the floor in the bathroom. The second night was better with no interruptions. I told the hotel and we got some of our bill reduced, but we won't stay there again.
