Sorry I will not be staying there again. Room was clean furniture old. Plastic shower screen in bath.
Pros:

The staff were exceptional. Location good for me but not suitable for everyone.

Cons:

refurbishments were being conducted, jack hammering or construction noise during the day. The trip to the pool was adventurous after walking through construction area. The pool was disgustingly fiflty the tiling in shocking state of disrepair. After second day I had no hot water in my room I had to visit reception to get them to connect hot water when I wanted hot shower.
Should have been informed of construction work at time of booking.
