Perfect stay. I did not expect breakfast included so it was a nice surprise.it was a good selection. I used the gym, pool, jacuzzi and sauna and it was not busy. We used the park and ride bus which was a cross the road from the hotel when we went to the city centre which was £2.50 return.

We booked this hotel specifically to use the pool but it was closed, think we should’ve been informed of that as it’s a big selling point. The corridor outside of our room had a bad smell on both days. Staff were nice though, helpful and friendly and the room was clean.
