Order a take away.
Pros:

The room was clean and quiet. Rooms are like a glorified Travelodge.
Indoor pool was the best part.

Cons:

The grandness of the building is misleading - photos should represent the places people stay. It’s the equivalent of displaying The Shard as the property but actually sleeping in the council flats next to it. Yes you can have your dinner in The Shard, but you can’t sleep there!
The bar service was utterly appalling. Queuing over half an hour for a drink. To not have half the drinks available.
The restaurant was appalling. Not all the Food on the menu available and after 1hr and 15min we gave up waiting for our dinner, we got a refund but went to bed hungry.

Felt very comfortable during our stay and would visit again.
Pros:

We stayed for one night after a family wedding, the staff were very welcoming and friendly, room was very clean and comfortable, modern bathroom/shower, and the food exceptional. Plenty of choice for breakfast, which was buffet style.

Cons:

Room was quite small which may not suit someone staying for a longer break.

Oh well. I survived. Shame about the dodgy pool changing rooms.
Pros:

Location? Taxi was £26 to Fareham train station.
Breakfast. Excellent. But requested alarm call didnt happen.
Room? Very cold. Bring an extra jumper to sleep in.
Staff? Helpful and friendly
Swimming pool? Lovely. But they do not warn you that the changing rooms are both men and women. Therefore, this is a problem. They do not understand womens need for safety.

Cons:

Give people the option to avoid the pool area, because it is unsafe to have mixed gender chsnging facilities.

Pleasant staff - poor decision smoking area placement - car park area would be better suited
Pros:

Room was a good size and bathroom clean, pillows had seen better days and so not the most comfortable

Cons:

Unable to open window, as the smoking area was outside my room - with the door having a fairly large gao underneath the smoke smell came in without windows open. Noise from people smoking was not the best after a long day training. And the guy deciding to have a row on a phone outside wasn't welcomed at all. ONce I did get to sleep hoping for a "bit" of a lay in, the beer barrels dropping to the floor outside the room at 7:30 we not welcomed either
