Very good.
Pros:

Very clean and well appointed.

Cons:

Dishwasher was very smelly, didn’t use it for this reason.
We weren’t told where the pool etc was on arrival. Tried looking for it, went to office but there was no one in there.

It was only 8 minutes from our event and 8 minutes from the city. The rooms are comfortable, clean and had everything you need to cater for yourself. Beds were comfortable and pool was warmer than last time

Cons:

Pool was too cold for an indoor pool.

Nice and clean. Good value. Good location. Would stay again.
Pros:

The size of the accommodation and general grounds layout.

Cons:

Ensuite needs renovation. Lounges need replacing. Some more kitchenware would be good. Some upkeep needed ie crack in wall and loose floor tiles in kitchen/entry.

A suitable stay for a team on a work conference
Pros:

The number of rooms plus living room was suitable for our work team to rest and talk with each other. It was also close to the nearby supermarket and restaurants. I'd be happy to come back here again in the future.

Cons:

One bathroom for six guests can be tight, but it's doable if everyone works out their times to shower. Otherwise, as mentioned before, I'd be happy to come back here again.
