They need to do better
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

The place was filthy. Mould in the bathroom, we couldn't use the spa as the vets looked like they had never been cleaned. The ceiling fans were thick with dust like they had never been wiped. There was rubbish and kids toys behind the bed side tables. They clearly never cleaned behind the tables.
We had 3 people booked to stay there, yet they kept only supplying 2 towels and 2 bottles of water even though we reminded them we had 3 people.
My daughter was sick in her bed and we asked for the sheets to be changed. All they did was make the bed. She slept in vomit for 3 nights
