We stayed here for a week. A bit of confusion at the beginning about the room we had a booked. After raising this it was rectified. I would recommended the Club rooms. Found the deluxe room grim. The restaurant staff were exceptionally helpful and were very friendly, making dining an enjoyable experience. The continental breakfast options were limited and everything on menu was not always available but food was good. The hotel & rooms very clean and the staff around the hotel were very helpful and friendly.
