Terrible facility
Such a disappointing experience. The facilities and room are dilapidated and falling apart. Serious maintenance is needed inside rooms, to kids play area and overall property. The hygiene levels are not up to par The self catering unit offers mix matched, crockery and cutlery whilst the kitchenette is dirty and cupboards chipped and rotting. The staff are unprofessional and not helpful at all. We had to ask twice for toilet paper because no room service was offered. The safe didn’t work. There was no iron in the room. No wifi as promised. Just a very disappointing holiday stay. Still waiting on an apology. Pitiful service.

Worst Holiday
We were a family of 3 and requested a cot or a queen sized bed. We had to sleep on a three quarter bed which was extremely uncomfortable. We had to use an oil rag as the dish cloth which wasn’t replaced daily. The shower was faulty. The cleaning staff was rude, moody and unapproachable.
