Very upset that EXPEDIA did not showcase this hotel correctly. Expedia's gallery information regarding the bathrooms showed showers over baths. However after checking in we found our bathroom only had a shower cubicle. This meant an inconvenient room change the next day. We thought all rooms had baths with showers. Expedia should have been more accurate when describing the hotel's amenities

Great pool, quite warm too!
Lovely view from the room & the bar.
Food was nice, service was slow though.
Doesn't have room service, despite saying it does - I was told I could order in the bar & carry it up myself but I have a walking stick so not sure how I was meant to balance it.
Also if my son was well enough to sit in the bar while they ordered & cooked his food,then we may as well just eat there (he wasn't well enough)
Worst though was the lack of sleep due to the pillows - all 3 days I woke with the worst pain in my neck, despite trying to sleep in every position & try every pillow! Haven't had this issue in other hotels.
