Rachael

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was good for the price we paid. My son enjoyed the thermal pool. The only reason kids want to play in pools is to jump and splash (cause that is how they see water as fun). Being told not to is counter intuitive. Luckily we met lots of like-minded families in the lower pool. We never went to the other pool as we heard that kids were told off there. Staff were generally friendly, our room was mostly clean.
