Hotel was beautiful from the outside, but unfortunately that’s where it stopped the room was tired and needed a good clean. I had to ask for housekeeping! Breakfast was terrible and cold! Was better when ordered to room. Staff were nice but not enough of them and they seemed to be run ragged! Really disappointed as did look fab from the outside, I had high hopes!!

This hotel needs a serious overhaul. The decor and facilities felt like I was back in the early 90s (but not in cool retro way). They even had a dataport for dial-up modems in the hotel rooms. Parking was bad and had to squeeze in the last spot in the car park. The staff were very polite but needed training in regard to if something went wrong. For example my wife and I had ordered a sandwich from the restaurant and 20 mins after ordering the waiter came out and said they didn't have one of the dishes then I quickly ordered another option. 15 minutes later one dish came out then we waited 40 minutes for the second to come out. When I pointed this out the waiter just said sorry. Considering the price of hotel and star rating I would expect staff to offer a free drink or something to compensate for the horrific delays. The room was poorly cleaned and actually had a pubic hair on the wall and an empty biscuit wrapper in a draw. No mini-bar drinks option with an empty fridge. The door had a massive crack in it and overnight there were very loud bangs coming from the plumbing system. Overall we were very disappointed and we did mention to staff and they simply said we're sorry for that with nothing offered. Next time I see any of these resorts will avoid booking and also tell my social network never to book these places. Highly avoid if possible.

Outdated and very expensive but the worst part was the service. 2 hours for room service, reception experience dreadfully slow and breakfast service and standard woeful for £26 pp. would not stay again or recommend.
