The hotel was tired and just ‘ok’. I’ve stayed in Macdonald hotels and they’re been great hence booking a new one to try. To be honest I’ve stayed in better budget hotels. The bathroom has grout missing and quite mouldy and not well maintained tiles etc. The restaurant only served DIY instant decaf sachet coffee which is so poor. Not much choice for vegans and the staff were not helpful when I asked. I wouldn’t return here, overall very disappointed as this was meant to be a celebration for both my sons graduating. Leisure facilities were ok but when I went back to get changed not a lot of room as multiple spa parties in the changing area. Had to wait.

We changed our hotel as we need a room with aircon. Aircon here actually I fact means a table fan. Corridors smell damp and musty. Asked for room service at 3am and was told bar shut so had to drive to shop to get drink. So understaffed. Some staff were so lovely. Gentleman who checked us in and some restaurant staff. Others had no idea and couldn’t speak much English. Guests trying to explain what a shandy was. Or even to try and get a jug of water. Really wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

Alright for a night

Hotel is very dated + tired, we stayed in a suite, the kids were given camp beds with broken springs so they basically slept on the floor. Coffee machine in room didn't work, bathroom was not the cleanest, we kept finding long dark hairs everywhere. We ate in the hotel restaurant, again not the cleanest. Cobwebs in most corners + dust along the windowsills. Windows in restaurant were filthy. Sofas in the bar area have had their day - basically like sitting on the floor. Food at dinner was good and the service was prompt. Breakfast was basic but as expected. It was OK for the night, we would likely not return.

We are grateful of the help that Olivia provided on Reception when are daughter had a fall outside on the path. She gave us help and was very understanding. The breakfast was good, but food ran out regularly and it was difficult to get any team members to get help. The rooms and parts of the hotel looked tired and dated. Carpets in the room were stained as well as the windows. The bathroom mirrors had damage from stains. Furniture was also damaged. Could do with some extra care to get the hotel to a better standard.
