Pros and cons.

We checked in and were welcomed by the receptionist. Our room was in the basement so we took the lift down. The room was clean and tidy but I was disappointed to find that the sink in the bathroom was cracked badly as was one of the tiles on the floor. The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning unit was quite quiet. The breakfast was available in a small dining area. Although there was enough choice the way it was laid out made it difficult to get to some of the items so at times there were queues. There were only a few diners so this was surprising. The cutlery was made of very flimsy plastic and each knife, fork and spoon were in plastic wrappers. They were difficult to use as they were very flimsy. Not what we would expect in such an up market hotel such as this one. The area around the hotel was very dirty as there was lots of rubbish lying around.

Backing onto the river was lovely, could do the river walk. The restaurant was very nice, good food and atmosphere. Room was a good size with a little deck looking at the river. Had a fridge which was important and all the amenities you expect. Comfortable beds is what we are always looking for and these were very. Managed to soak in the outdoor hot tub which was great.

This is a an older hotel which shows a little bit of wear and tear. Our sink was cracked in places and clogged. There seems to be a lot of wear in the furniture and carpet. The website says that they have a really good Indian food restaurant which we were looking forward to visiting it turns out that the restaurant on the website no longer exists. They should update their website. The continental breakfast in the morning was uninspiring a little bit of bread and muffins and some yoghurt, cereal, juice and coffee

Unfortunately this was disappointing stay. The property is run down and in need of upkeep, cleaning and repairs. The features of this hotel are the pool, breakfast and kids "games area". These were all below expectations. The pool and slide area were dark and in need of upkeep. Stairs are rusting. The kids games area all require payments and tokens to do anything so there was no one using the space. The breakfast was simple cold cereals, the basic waffle station with minimal topping options, and no staff in attendance to help with anything if not working. The room was run down, had old dry wall patches in the bathrooms that need to be finished, have been poorly upgraded with very minimal upgrades (headboards, bathroom counter top) and a newer shower bar which prevents the doors from opening fully. The patio door did not lock. Overall, after a trip of many great hotel stays, this was in poor shape and would not recommend. It is also noisy with highway traffic.

Nice exceptfor a few things.

Normally make a point to stay here as everything is pretty decent. Our whole family likes to go there This time tho the toilet was running constantly. There was garbage on the floor from previous occupants on floor under the bed. No screen on the balcony door. Also the breakfast was not good. Waffle maker was not working. Hard boiled eggs were off. No creamer for the coffee and no one around to refill things that were short. Maybe it was a one off

The only good thing is that rooms are wide enough. The breakfast needs to be improved and staff are not that visible in the resort.

The room was not ready for a 4pm checkin. Room wasnt ready untill 445. Drawer fronts fell off when opening drawers. Half of the lights in the room were burnt out. The breakfast waffle mix had hair in it. The muffins were so stale you know they were sitting out for days. 10/10 would not recomend this dump
