Pros:

I liked the location and the overall feel of the hotel it was inviting and staff that I met were nice, we were greeted well upon arrival

Cons:

We were at a function held in the hotel and we checked out it wasnt until a couple of hours later I realised I had left my smartwatch on a glass on the coffee table. When I rang to ask did housekeeping collect it they asked us to email as housekeeping had left. Then we we got reply I was told that they didnt come across it. Very disappointing as I know exactly where I left it.

Spa quite run down.
Pros:

The rooms were nicely decorated, and the breakfast was a good offering with a nice variety of quality products.

Cons:

The spa was quite rundown. It was un pleasant to see the rotting wooden door frame of the sauna. The floor was also rather dirty and unkept.
