Our room smelled like a dog had been in it. The inside of the bed smelled like someone else’s perfume. The window looked into another room at a right angle. The pool was directly outside the lobby with a huge floor to ceiling window displaying the occupants. Ugh. We had booked two nights but left after one.

The hotel was just renovated and an excellent job. ONE suggestion would have been to install higher toilets. Ageing clientele have difficulty with standard/low toilets. Getting up and down challenging and there were no hand holds.
