10/10 Excellent
"I was sceptical about this hotel after reading some of the other reviews after we had booked, however we found the hotel to be great in every single way from the helpfulness of the staff, to the breakfasts, central location, room size, great job by the cleaning staff and the Spa and Pool. Definitely looking forward to staying again."
