The room itself was clean and comfortable, but the staff was overwhelming sometimes. When going to the reasturants they try very hard to upcharge you for the more expensive food option or to add alcohol, it felt pushy as I had to say no a few times which is not great for a 5 star hotel. Also it was raining and I came prepared with my own umbrella, but because it was similar color the staff kept trying to take it from me demanding I return it. It made me feel like they thought I was stealing and each time I returned from a walk I got harassed about the damn umbrella, again not something I expect from a 5 star hotel.
