Pros:

The staff were super accommodating and friendly, helping us get the early check-in we had asked for! The room was beautiful and spacious, with an extremely comfortable bed and a really nice shower! The pool and pool facilities were also lovely.

Cons:

It was genuinely a 10/10 stay but the lighting in the room and the dark mirrors made it hard to properly see when trying to look in the mirror.

A stylish hotel and we’d stay again but a few updates would elevate it to the next level
Pros:

Stylish rooms that were very tastefully furnished - couldn’t fault them

Cons:

Our room needed a couple of occasional chairs (there was plenty of room for them) and some outdoor furniture. Our coffee machine also leaked water everywhere which the staff were reluctant to replace and the shower had bad mould stains in the tile grouting which was disappointing. Lastly the acoustics aren’t great and you can easily hear guests next door.
