Lovely staff nice hotel
Pros:

The pool and spa were lovely. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. Made us iced coffees even though they weren't on the menu. The room was nice. Overall a great stay would stay there again.

Cons:

A little dated. Little things like handles are a bit loose. Could do with an update. Food was ok but I expected a little better for the price.

Great location, wonderful staff, bad WiFi.
Pros:

The room was lovely, the staff were increadible and the facilities at the spa were wonderful.

Cons:

The double bed was made of 2 beds so after the 1st night you noticed the bit in the middle. The WiFi was non existant which made it impossible for a work visit which is is unfortunate as I would have recomended it for a business location for the company I work for. The breakfast finishing at 9:30am was a bit of a rush in the mornings.
