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.

Checked in ok started working at the desk, heard a noise at the door and another male guest lets himself into my room with a key . As a lone solo female traveller it’s not acceptable went down to reception with the guest and got told I had to change rooms. I refused and then got told I could stay put . Hardly any toilet paper had to go to reception twice to request more . Bathroom had a lot of mould. Dinner waited 45 mins from walking in to getting my order. Forgot to bring wine to the table . I never complain about a hotel but I won’t be staying here again

The first room I was given was at the rear of the Hotel, when I found the Wi-Fi wasn't working I was moved to the front of the hotel. This was a mistake as I was kept awake half the night by noise. The first noisy event was not the hotel's fault, but that of some ignorant so-and-so who, at 03:30, couldn't be bothered to get out of their vehicle to let someone know they were there, beeping their horn instead! Technically the second two occurrences weren't the hotel's fault either, but it is something they can do something about. Large dustbins wagons arrived at 04:30 and at 04:50 to empty the refuge bins, with the accompanying reverse warnings sounds and bins being lifted and emptied. The hotel was good value, but the most of the buffet cooked breakfast was over cooked, with the fried eggs being like bullets, and the bacon like leather.
