Comfortable and what you would expect for a hotel in this price range.
Pros:

Good breakfast.
Pool looked good but did not have time to use it.

Cons:

Booked a twin room but was allocated a double and sofa bed. Not acceptable to my 34 year old nephew and myself.
Reception and housekeeping did well in finding a twin room.
Maybe you need to review your room allocation programme.

Cons:

I travelled for work. Unfortunately the reception would not issue a proper tax invoice. Even after contacting them multiple times via booking.com I did not receive any feedback! Very bad service and not recommended for business.

Pros:

This place works. It's clean, the staff are enthusiastic and kind. The health spa /pool is great. Food is great. Can't knock it.

Cons:

This place is so nice and I'd highly recommend to families. Especially with the pool and great food setup. So they are missing a trick by not topping up what they offer to families. Put a kids corner in, with a few board games , a console and some crayons and they will have nailed it.

Pros:

I was a late check in, but even late at night the staff were warm and friendly. Bed was very comfortable.

Cons:

Shower could have done with a bit more oomph, but perfectly adequate as is.
