Overpriced. Budget Ibis does a better job
Pros:

Starbucks on site

Cons:

Ordered drinks through the app to the table. Waited 20 minutes then went to the bar and the ticket had been left randomly on the bar.

Toilet was faulty, had to get staff up to fix it.

On the last day, the door stopped working. Got locked out for 30 minutes so was delayed checking out.

Worst of all, the wife broke out in bites all over her legs and arms. Can only be from somewhere in the hotel.

Training day !!!
Pros:

Great location - to be fair good rooms

Cons:

I use the Village 3-4 times a year and usually it hits all the bells and whistles - however on this occasion - it must have been a training day or a new set of servers were in charge!. I met my son and his family for dinner ahead of my holiday - the food at the Village has always been good - however on this occasion 7/09/ -our food was literally thrown at us! Cutlery slung on the tables - plates of food banged down - part of the order was missed - poor service took the edge off - but as I said maybe a training day they were all very young and in experienced !
