Excellent.
Pros:

Everything was exceptionally clean. I couldn't find a single speck of dust, even after checking high and low. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and i had one of the best nights' sleep I've had in a long time. The shower and bathroom facilities were excellent, and every aspect of the room exceeded my expectations. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. A well-deserved 10 out of 10. the value was very excellent 👍

Cons:

The only disappointing part of my stay was the food. I ordered the lamb fry, and unfortunately it was overcooked and tasted burnt. It lacked flavour, which was disappointing as I was looking forward to it. Aside from that meal, everything else about my stay was excellent the room service staff are lovely.
