Overall, the stay was fine, rooms were clean and super comfortable.
Pros:

The room was fairly good, beds were very comfortable, but we now have a serious issue. Service was excellent. Friendly staff - front desk, restaurant, cleaning staff. I will need to contact booking.com and the hotel concerning an issue.

Cons:

There should be a discount with the renovations and an email explaining the ducktaped carpets. The pool area needs ventilation as the air was too steamy and heavy. The breakfast was not good, overcooked dry eggs and dried out sausages.

It was good.
Pros:

The pool is nice but needs work especially on the stairs.

Cons:

My room seemed renovated but had water stains on the ceiling. I guess more attention to detail would be appreciated.

It needed a complete renovation of the bathroom. It looked like it was from the 70's with a more up to date shower head.
