Pros:

I did like the fact that I forgot my toiletries and when later I claimed them back, they were no where to be found, and the cleaners lied about them😪

Pros:

Setting and warmth of the staff

Cons:

Didn't have hot water and had to go to another room to take a bath which iwas very unfortunate. Need to improve to also have the room ready with all facilities in time and not provide limited and not all to make someone's stay enjoyable without interruption
