Shame one person let the place down

All was ok with the rooms, and communal areas. Lovely breakfasts although disappointing not having some of menu available. Magie as always was efficient and entertaining at breakfast. Our only complaint was the manager challenged our son who was sat on balcony having a drink waiting for us. Accusing him of not being a guest and drinking his own beer. It was Red Stripe and he had chosen not to have a glass. The manager didn't know they sold Red Stripe. On realising his mistake, no apology was offered, which is bad management and rude!!

On the whole a nice stay but room was far too hot

We stayed in this hotel due to being conveniently close to family we were visiting. The room was nice and the bed was very comfortable apart from the extreme heat. We were in room 105 and had a restrictor on the window which meant it couldn't be opened at all. There was a fan provided but due to the towel radiator in the bathroom being on full blast with no way of turning it down, the fan had little effect. It's a real shame as the bed was extremely comfortable but the heat meant we didn't sleep very well at all and woke up every morning feeling dehydrated. Some parts of the hotel are really showing some wear and tear and could do with some attention, however breakfast was really nice and had a good selection. The outdoor area is also very nice to have a drink. On the whole we enjoyed our stay but please do something about the heat in the rooms as this was a real negative for us.

Nice hotel with an excellent position

Had a nice short break here. Room was fine (we had a balcony room with a great view). Shower was very good. Would be nice to have a lift as my partner struggles a bit with the stairs, but it was OK. Dinner in the main restaurant was superb and the waitress was friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

Lovely staff working at the hotel, attentive . Breakfast was good , thank you to JARED and MAGGIE for looking after us. Restaurant bar staff were lovely too. We sat in the lounge for a couple of hours in the afternoon , such a shame there aren’t any cards dominoes scrabble chess or other games for guests to use as there are in many other hotels. The hotel reception areas , outside garden area and both restaurants were lovely.I was disappointed with the room 201 though . 3 flights of stairs and no lift ! Small , with not much space to move around .Bathroom was a tight fit too . Carpet didn’t reach the walls , was quite stained in many places . Limited storage area for your suitcase coats boots etc The bed was comfy and we both slept well.
