Acceptable stay with some issues

tired decor dirty poolside
The room size was good which was helpful for organizing luggage and moving around.
The bedroom decor seemed worn compared to the modern bathroom. On arrival, the waste bin had not been emptied and that wasn't a great first impression. The spa and swimming pool area could use more frequent cleaning. There was dirt due to outdoor footwear. Staff were cute and the location was decent but those issues were off-putting.

The room was spacious. I appreciated the comfortable bed and pillows. The shower room was also quite large. It featured a walk-in shower as requested. The rain head shower was fantastic.
