“Great service from the team, but cleanliness needs more attention.
Pros:

I must say the manager Sean was brilliant . Such a pleasant man, best person to work at the front desk.The ladies working in the breakfast restaurant were nice too.

Cons:

*Dusty table fan provided.

*Next door people made so much noise in the middle of the night and could be heard in our room the 2 days that we stayed. Noises about them talking and laughing loud could be heard in the toilet as well, which made the stay some bit unpleasant

Cons:

Hotel was grubby and dirty, stained carpets,sticky floors in common areas, food was really poor quality both for dinner and breakfast

Broken towel rails in bathrooms removed painted over rather than repair or replace.

Some staff were lovely some were abrupt

Overall wouldn't stay again, definitely wouldn't eat here

Nice Hotel.
Pros:

Hotel was nice, room was clean, bed was comfortable, but unfortunately no air conditioning, which was really needed in the heat wave. Only found out when we checked out, that we could have had a fan. The breakfast was really good!

Cons:

Restaurant was nice, but unfortunately we had the steak, which was terrible. Gave us free desserts, to make up for it. This marred what was a really enjoyable stay. Don't let this put you off.
