The first night we were there, there was a lot of kids running up and down the halls which i told reception, which her talk with them didnt overly help as it still continued. Your hotel advertises that all rooms are sound proofed which is a lie as far as i am concerned considering we had to phone the front desk and complain about the noise coming from the room next to us. The noise from the room beside us happened twice. Also the claning of the tables at breakfast coule have been better as i had to grab the bottle and napkins to clean a table we wanted to sit at. All tables were dirty.

The young lady at the front desk handled any requests we had promptly. We have twin 1 year olds and holiday in accommodated us with two cribs so we didn’t need to pack along ours from home which is a major help as a parent. Room was incredible! Huge and suited our family well. Great stay thank you.

room was dirty, staff was not reliable, secondary locks in the room did not work, we wanted a refund and leave to go to another hotel but we were instead moved to another room that smelled better, but the secondary lock did not work. we were afraid for our safety should anyone try to come in, so we placed a barrier to secure the door. Not a pleasant stay at all. worrysome.

The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent. The lady making and serving breakfast was fantastic and helpful. The room however wasn't clean. There was old candy under the lounge chair and grime in the tub I washed out. The bed was very hard and not in a firm mattress way, in an old mattress sort of way. The pillows were too squishy (down filled?) and it was hard to get comfortable. There's a light that runs along the back of the headboard that kept flickering on after we shut the switch off. We called the front desk and they came and unplugged it from under the bed. It was a known issue apparently so why they haven't disabled these lights beforehand is a bit confusing. It was late by the time we fixed it and I imagine most people wouldn't notice until it's time for bed. The pool was a great temperature but there was a lot of hair in it. It wasn't a very clean hotel. There's only one elevator that took a long time and they even put up a notice for guests to use the stairs. But I noticed the staff needed access to the elevator a lot. Cleaning staff should not have to go up and down floors to access what they need imo. Everything should be on the floor they're cleaning. Especially since the sign is asking guests to use the stairs during high traffic times.
