Overall very good hotel with excellent facilities
Very comfy bed , quiet , nice leisure centre with excellent facilities that you can use for free during your stay
Spacious and quiet room
Room service food was very nice (sandwiche/fries/salad
Although quite expensive totalling £19
I can't really fault the hotel in any way
Only thing I would say is that I was told I could use the pool until 6pm when I arrived only to be told it was closing at 5 40 which was disappointing. But other than that I have no negatives to mention

The restaurant staff are wonderful, tbh I'm reluctant to share how wonderful this place is would like to keep it secret.
A family were v annoying with a tennis ball and needed to be stopped only down side.
Cocktails are excellent.
