Staff are good, restaurant is nice. The tandoori pizza is amazing. The roomd are a bit dated. No charging ports by the bed. Only one power outlet in the whole room. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash are not provided. There is no microwave in the room, and we had to request an iron. The TV was pretty useless. Only two channels and one of them was static.
