Enjoyed our stay. Stayed for 2 nights and made the most out of the pool, jacuzzi and sauna, except the sauna wasn’t working on the last morning. Food could have been better but ok. The kids loved the pool, staff are very friendly and polite. We received a free breakfast too. Thanks

A little tired around the edges but basically a decent hotel and we had good overnight stay. Full marks to the front desk staff who kept smiling and remained professional when a guest checking out before us was overbearing and very rude.
