Room (junior suite 402) was large with a good balcony (although no sun on it in the afternoon) but was a little tired - could do with a few more pictures on the walls and some updated furniture. Good kitchen equipment and good size shower. Door to toilet needs adjusting as the bottom scrapes the floor when opened. Restaurant evening menu was very disappointing so we didn't eat there.

Very tired needing a make over.

Whilst the place was clean, it urgently needs a make over and the rooms are very dated. We were on the Junior suite (401) next to the drive way and swimming pool, and you could hear people talking plus noise from vehicles driving into the hotel. Staff were very friendly, great location but very much in the 80’s.

They were doing renovations but never advised us on checkin. They also gave us a drinks voucher but were unable to use it because the bar was closed. The evening lady offered to give us a drink that we could take back to our room, but the options were very limited, so was a wasted perk. But the location of the property was good for us.

This hotel is excellent. We usually have a mini suite which is spacious and has great amenities. The cleanliness of the room is usually excellent but a little disappointed this time with the vacuuming. There were hairs and lolly papers in the lounge area that had been missed from the previous occupants.

Overall, okay. Man behind desk was extremely unhelpful. We had no wifi. I asked over 5 hour period nothing was done. Finally a trickle came through late at night-very slowly. Additionally, there were two of us but gave us 1 free beverage, although part of our membership.
