They couldn't print out a copy of my final bill, so said they would e-mail. I haven't received it and there's no e-mail to contact them, just a Malaysian number which is no use as I'm back in the UK

Room was clean. And staff was great! Excellent location of the hotel too. Highly recommend! Only down side was the pool closed at 9pm, and we like to swim later.
