As this room seemed to be a disabled room i found the saftey rail in the shower to be rusty, the air con wasn't at its best & the 2 fans were not much good, although the staff were very welcoming & helpfull, i found the smell from the water outside was rather off putting, the bar was well stocked with good service

Every member of staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast staff were “on it” clearing tables getting food restocked. Getting drinks. Room was spotless. The swimming pool and sauna not rated at all. This is outside the hotel. Ignore this and I can’t fault the hotel. Looks all modern in breakfast area bar and reception. Would stay again.
