I could not fault the service of staff the only issue was that the hotel is a little tired. The sure club was excellent, as was the food and the service. The room was spotless if a little cold but our trip represented great value. I would stay again.

The staff were very nice however the hotel is incredibly tired. Rooms were clean enough but very tired and pretty basic. The food was good however, and the pool small but nice - not quite a spa but fine.

Great hotel in an excellent location, just a short walk from the station. The pool and jacuzzi are lovely, and while the hotel could use a little TLC, it only adds to its charm. The breakfast was excellent – highly recommended. Thank you 😊
