Dated property but common areas were in decent shape. The room cleaning standards are poor, mold in showers, dirty dishes, stained walls. Disappointing from a once trusted brand. Staff were nice.

The Hotel met our expectations, we loved our room, spacious, lovely decor, bathroom was great. The only improvement required is car parking, which is too far away and not secure. Staff are very helpful and pool, spa and sauna are great.

Great stay and comfy beds but unfortunately my car was broken into and couldn’t drive home due to the damage that was done, but so thankful that the staff in reception were super helpful and accomodating.
