The breakfast was excellent and the view from my room stunning. My room was 128 and the noise from the plumbing was ridiculous. I heard when they went to the toilet had a shower or washed their hands. Not only was that annoying but the walls and ceilings are not sound proofed so I heard the armourous activity of the room beside mine and the television from the other side keeping me awake until very late and I was there for three nights !!!!Also for anyone who suffers from asthma I would not recommend the hotel as there is a very steep hill going to and from the hotel. So would I stay there again? Unfortunately not.

Great staff and beautiful pool

The staff were very helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed the pool age the location of the hotel close to the bus station and the town but not too close to the town.
