Not for us
Pros:

We stayed half board and the dining room & the food was lovely. Bar staff also really nice people.

Cons:

Our room on the ground floor which we asked for as we went with my mother in law, but our room smelt of urine. (nursing home smell).
Bedding was clean, bonus!

Comfortable and fun weekend
Pros:

We were well looked after by all the staff, who were very helpful and welcoming. The food, breakfast and dinner, was exceptional, with a special mention to the waiting-on staff, they are a credit to the hotel. Initially we weren’t too enamoured with our allocated room, but the reception staff were happy to relocate us to a much better room, which was excellent. Entertainment was top notch and the cabaret lounge staff were also very efficient.

Cons:

Internet was rather weak on the 4th floor but it didn’t detract from a lovely stay.
