Very nice stay
Pros:

Nice spacious room with great AC, modern decor, strong shower and a view over the city. Room was cleaned every day, excellent quality! Sheets and towels were nice. Clean pool in the shade. One sun lounger, and a few chairs & tables by the pool. Gym with some weights and machines. Breakfast was 20RM per person per day and had adequate choices: eggs, toast, peanut butter, jam, sausages, rice, hash browns, cucumber, watermelon, juice and coffee. Location is good, but too far to walk to the city center.

Cons:

Gym was not always clean. There was no disinfectant to clean the equipment. The AC in the gym doesn’t make the room cooler, only circulates the air like a fan. it gets really hot in the gym.
The room often smelled like sewage, had to keep the bathroom fan on at all times.
Breakfast was not kept warm.

Good ig?
Pros:

I like the bed. It's very soft.

Cons:

When I sleep on the bed. My skin suddenly feels itchy. Small red bumps begin to appear. I think there's bed bugs.. You should really check the bed.
