Staff were friendly and helpful. Room and bathroom very cramped - couldn’t fully open bathroom door Enjoyed meals though breakfast service was chaotic Liked location Parking difficult A bit of a work in progress - potential wasted e g pool surrounds - needs to be sharper- should not have to squeeze by bins to get to the back car park under the rusty fire escape.

Room facilities were poor. 1) Shower room inadequate; Showerhead not secured adequately, wash basin far too small, toilet seat not properly secured and not properly size matched to toilet pan. 2) TV; unnessessarily large for a small room and controls take a scientist to figure them. 3) Too many plug extensions and adapters.

We had an amazing stay! We were given the choice of which room we wanted on arrival which was an extra bonus. The pool and sauna is a really nice touch too. We didn't order breakfasts but the staff were happy to accommodate teas and coffees in the morning for us. During our stay, one of us became unexpectedly unwell, meaning we needed to request additional cleaning to the room - the staff were very understanding and didn't make a fuss of this. All in all an amazing stay and we will be back again next year!

Do Not Book. Unfortunately we had a very disappointing experience at this hotel. We were given a room that looked nothing like the pictures, and told there was no other rooms available and that other guests had been given priority of room because of how advance their booking was. Our booking was made 3 weeks prior so I wouldn’t have classes us as last minute. There was MOLD all around the windows in the bathroom and we were lied to that it was “grit” until the cleaner apologised that it was infact mold and was under the seal of the window. The shower pressure was a dribble so that was shocking. The reception girls were not only patronising but extremely unhelpful and u professional. I had to wait more than 30 minutes to try and speak to someone senior in charge as my request to move room was not taken seriously and when they eventually did show us a different room it was still outdated and not much difference from room 1. We were never refunded for our first nights stay however we were for our second night as we asked to leave the hotel and we found somewhere else to stay. This hotel was dirty, and didn’t make you feel at home. So disappointing and if I had not pushed for the situation to be handled we would have gotten nowhere. Do better.

Looks good on the photos, but they have spent more money on the ridiculously complicated over-sized TV's they should have spent he money on upgrading the showers so they actually work, we had 2 rooms in our group and the issues was in both. bar and restaurant staff were polite but didn't know what they were doing, sorry I rarely write a negative review, but i wasn't impressed

Average hotel whose better days are behind it. Good value for money though. Very disappointed to be told upon returning from an evening out that the bar was holding a private party so we were not allowed entry despite it being virtually empty.

Not like the photos
We were very disappointed in our stay. The photos on the Hotel.com page look nice but they were nothing like the rooms we received. Let’s start with the positives. The common area is nice and the beds were comfortable. We also had very good service from the girl at the bar (black, braided hair). The rest was less good. We had two rooms and they were shabby and dated. The bathroom was old and and basic. The shower was absolutely ridiculous. A trickle (I do not exaggerate) of water that took AGES to get warm. Way too expensive for what it is.

Lovely but check the room you book is the 1 in pic
The deluxe double room was very comfortable but we were disappointed not to get the beautiful decor and modern bathroom we'd seen as the main photos of the room. I'd booked it for that reason and was happy to pay the price because it looked so special. Our room was nice enough but I don't think it should have been the same price
