Disappointing experience overall

Room was fine, except footprints in the shower and bathroom. After asking for this to be re-cleaned the hotel left a fruit basket in the room which could have been for 5 people, very wasteful. Breakfast was ruined by the front desk informing breakfast was open until 1130. Upon arriving at 1100 it was shut, no ownership taken by the front desk who didn’t seem to understand our annoyance. This could be a really good hotel but it’s let down by the small details

Very nice clean hotel. Be aware though that Expedia let's you book four people onto a room that is not appropriate for four people which we discovered when checking in. The hotel did say this was our fault but I showed them Expedia states very clearly against each room booking how many the room SLEEPS. That is an error of Expedia but thr hotel use them as a third party so they need to talk and sort that out. We had to pay extra to change our room. Aside from this everything else was spot on. Great breakfast, friendly staff. Room walls are a bit thin and windows don't drown out the motorway at the front

Fabulous hotel

Fabulous 3 night stay. Staff in all areas of the hotel are extremely polite and cannot do enough for their guests. The communal areas are spotlessly clean and water and coffee are available all day in reception. The choice of food is excellent at breakfast and the waitors very attentive. The pool area is also extremely clean and well maintained. I would definitely recommend.
