Sanctuary hotel and villas - bad experience

The apartment had spider webs; no soap, no shampoo in the bathroom! The pillows were like a lumpy rocks- unable to relax,to sleep. I called numerous time to get soap and shampoo and they gave us only one time a soap, 1 shampoo and 1 conditioner???!!!the next door neighbors had a dog, barking… we went to Sanctuary hotel bar and they lost our credit card!!! The security came looking under table and chairs and couch and couldn’t find it!! After couple hours they called saying was under the couch!! Really??!! Horrible experience!!

Less than expected

The villa was very outdated with very old decor and odd furniture. The bathtub wouldn't hold water, the coffee maker didn't work, the included bikes were broken or had flat fires, the curtain rods fell off when adjusting the curtains.
