Cleanliness
1
Multiple reviewers describe rooms and building as clean, modern and well kept, though one report mentions oil smell in part of the building during breakfast.
Service
1
Mixed to negative: several notes of friendly/helpful staff but repeated problems with slow check-in, understaffed front desk, rude manager at breakfast, and a security scare (staff attempted to enter room at night).
Location
1
Positive river views and landscaped grounds praised, but the large, maze-like layout and lack of signage make orientation difficult for guests.
Room Quality
1
Mixed: some guests enjoyed large, comfortable beds and well-appointed rooms; others reported small rooms, squeaky beds, softer-than-desired mattresses, and thin walls with noise issues.
Amenities
1
Strong amenity set noted (sauna, lap pool, large pool, extensive gym and gymnasium, pub/restaurant, kitchenette options, refill stations); overall amenities are a highlight.
Value for Money
1
Several guests called it good value with a substantial breakfast and facilities, though at least one guest reported a serious pricing/booking dispute (extra $100) that lowered perceived value.
Food and Beverage
1
Breakfast buffet is praised when available, and the pub is liked by some; however complaints include slow food service, pub food quality for some, and instances of no staff in the cafe.
Overall Experience
1
Overall mixed impressions: several 'great' or 'amazing' stays thanks to amenities and staff, offset by service issues, navigation problems, noise, and isolated negative incidents.

Hotel curioso, porque parece del ejercito del aire. Bonito, limpio, habitación amplia. Es como un laberinto eso sí..

Cons:

Nos faltó más oferta de desayuno y cena.
Los vestuarios de la piscina estaban atascados y olían fatal a baño atascado

Pros:

Sehr interessantes Hotel, da es ursprünglich als Schulungsunterkunft errichtet wurde. Die Zimmer sind modern ausgestattet. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es liegt etwas ausserhalb von Cornwall aber dadurch auch sehr ruhig. Viel grün und Wasser.

Cons:

Alles gut
