The staff were great and supportive when i misplaced my key. The room was clean and quiet. I was a bit afraid of stepping down into the spa bath for a shower, a handle to hold would have been great. All in all a great place to stay.

Jo

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Closing the pool until 10:30am when checkout is at 10, thus depriving aquatic-fancying guests of a morning swim before checking out... Draconian stuff... also the rooms themselves are a bit worn out. Not very good value for money considering the price. The person at reception was unable to give me a quote for a second night stay, and dynamic/surge pricing and charges were obscene considering the poor quality of the rooms and amenities.
