Disliked: Amenities
Over the top expensive for a very small room. Felt unsafe with being on the ground floor, not being able to open the window as no screens (anybody could easily get in). Bed was hard. Spa not working in the pool area. Breakfast only open til 9am. Only good aspect was the nice reception area.

Ian

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Paid nearly £200 for one night in a small basic room. I understand that we booked late and the town was busy. However, we were only staying for one night and the only facility we were really interested in was the restaurant. On arrival at around 4pm we were informed that the restaurant was fully booked and if we wanted to eat we would need to go into town. When we visited the bar at around 7pm we noticed that the restaurant was relatively empty. On enquiry we were informed that the hotel only had one chef and they were busy because two coach trips were staying at the hotel and therefore could not accommodate other guests. In my opinion important decision making facilities such as restaurants should if advertised always be available. When I complained the following morning the staff were clearly uninterested.

Great value, excellent accommodation, nice to have 1BR apartment to spread around in. 3 km from town, only annoyance is wifi was incredibly bad and the property is in something of a cellular “hole” so neither data connection worked very well. May be unique to our unit (103h but would be a problem if we were staying for more than a few nights or needed to work.
