ROBERT Jun 16, 2025 10:34:58 PM
Summary: Terrible room. Noisy and small. Apparently we shouldn't have booked the Classic room. Based on our experience I'd advise others to think twice before doing so. Most staff excellent but Reception staff could do with a Customer Care course!
Phoebe Jun 9, 2025 01:13:10 AM

Michelle May 26, 2025 10:36:05 PM
Summary: We enjoyed our stay, we loved that there was a pantry with drinks and snacks in, and the staff were so friendly from reception to breakfast the next morning. The pool area was good, and we'd come back again.
Francesca May 4, 2025 08:43:28 PM
Summary: The staff are fantastic and so friendly, making the stay really comfortable. However, the outdoor pool was quite dirty, including the loungers and the pool surfaces with bird poo and staining on the tiles. Also our room did not have air conditioning and it was extremely hot and uncomfortable to sleep the first night. After this we had fans on which the hotel supplied. We had a lovely stay despite the small issues.
