The front desk staff were so incredibly friendly, they really made us feel welcome. The room was great, really comfortable bed and the bathroom was amazing! We stayed in the suite and it was worth it! The only thing is that it's a bit run down in places in the room and there was no plugs next to the bed but nothing major, overall had a really pleasant stay!

The stay for us was adequate, we thought it overpriced, the outside didnt look the best upkept however the inside of the hotel was a lot better but does require some decoration. We had an evening meal which was good, the breakfast was very good, the staff were very polite & professional but seemed to be understaffed. All in all a pleasing stay.

I didn't think it was fair to have a trainee working on their own on a busy Saturday afternoon. The showers were shocking in the pool area. I feel it was generally overpriced. The dehumidifier in the pool was incredibly loud. The room didn't offer much in the way of soundproofing. There was not a hairdryer in the room, even asking for one at reception I was not given one. The overall feel of the hotel felt tired, despite probably being cleaned it didn't feel it.

Overall, the hotel is in desperate need of investment. The worst nights sleep ever had!! Due to inconsiderate guests, wafer thin walls, and very poor heating controls. The cleaning standards are something to do addressed, with the very basics, failing miserable. In addition to most staff ,failing to have any sense of urgency in performing there duties. The spa & pool area, requires a complete Overall, with only positive is usage included within the room rate. The restaurant is adequate if you have no desire for anything special, with the breakfast offering, certainly nothing special.
