Lack of Customer Service
Check in took 15 minutes due to Manager standing 3 metres away training new waiting staff. Waited for 5 minutes to be seated although both new waiting team were standing 5 metres away and did not even bother to engage with me. I left and went back to my room. The bedroom was very nice until i got into bed, the most uncomfortable mattress i have ever slept in.

No WIFI in the rooms
Decent room and food. Terrible WIFI in the room. Connection kept dropping out. For me this is important. So will not be visiting again.
