BIG beds, hands on games and great staff members.
Pros:

Well I have NEVER seen a bed this big!!!
Fantastic!!!
We under estimated the sizes of the beds.
The staff from the very start were friendly and managed to be great.
The facilities.. whilst there may be no sauna, steam room or a swimming pool. They DO have darts, a pool table, pinball machine, mini PS1 (wasn't attached), Shuffle board, and afew more bits.
The seating areas were beautifully designed too.
We didn't have the breakfast option, due to not being sure if the celiac individual's needs would be met.
The check out time was great too!!

Cons:

That there wasn't an option for a room to have a single bed or even a sofa bed available, which meant we had to book two rooms, only due to having a child with us, otherwise this would have been fine.
We had to leave.

Basics services. No fridge or intercom and they have a tiny duvet either on double room.
Pros:

Localização

Cons:

This hotel has basic service; there's no intercom or mini-fridge in the room. But what bothered me most was the fact that they provided tiny single duvets instead of a double one, even though I booked a double room. The staff simply said, reluctantly, that they didn't have double duvets at the hotel. I had to sleep for 7 days with this tiny duvet that only covered half my body.
