Unfortunately not good
Pros:

The pool & spa was excellent. The staff were generally very friendly & helpful.

Cons:

Found a used condom in a vase in our bathroom. The door card readers are not fit for purpose you have to keep going to reception to change. As we were leaving we wrapped up the quilt & discovered it had staining which looked like blood on it we took a picture & complained & after an investigation they said it was soap residue ( apparently they use red soap!!) breakfast is poor we were served raw porridge on the first day & the sausages were off on the second day! They offered us an upgrade next time we book like I will be going back! The hotel is also a concrete slab in the middle of nowhere! Probably good for corporate but not a couples thing.
