Our stay over the (very) busy weekend for the Spilt Milk festival was excellent. Clean room with sufficient cooking amenities, and we had 2 bathrooms to share across the 4 of us which was great. Parking was included and there was plenty of spaces. Pool (albeit quite cold) was lovely and although we did not utilise the gym it was clean and private from view of the pool. Overall we had a really enjoyable stay and for the price, we would absolutely book here again.

We really like the layout of the apartment. There is lots of space to settle in and feel like home away from home. But the couch in our apartment was lumpy, very uncomfortable. We were only serviced twice during the week, we accept there were public holidays in there but we had rubbish in our bins for 3 days.

Friendly staff, great location and secure parking. Clean sheets, but room 208 smelt like someone had been smoking in there for days. Shower pressure didn't work, the pipes kept screaming and the water would stop and start. I thought it might be a late night thing, but same occurred in the morning. They were booked up otherwise would have asked for room change.

our main concerns were that the indoor heated pool was very cold and as a way of getting the kids out as there lips were blue was to have a spa in the room and it didn't work at all. Also the lounge was just terribly worn out and uncomfortable.

Deceived and scammed

Decieving!!! Online pictures are nothing compared to what you get. Absolutely shocking. Pool is in the underground car park. Feels like your in a dungeon and soooo old and out dated. looks nothing like the photos . got locked in the bathroom as the bathroom doors are so old . When we contacted the reception they said theres a metal skewer in the kitchen drawer to use that. How unsafe !! The beds are so old you feel the springs in your back. No warm blankets in the cupboard. The room smell of mould . The hotel overall is over 20 years old and they used the photo's when it was first built . Fridge makes loud noise all night . The microwave is sonething that should be in a museum. The couch is actually broken 🙃 DO NOT STAY HERE !! I do not recommend
