Hotel was ok, but it wasn’t great. Tried to call room service and no one picked up. Bathroom was not like the pictures and seemed very unclean. People at reception were unpleasant and didn’t seem to want to help me when i had questions. Outside facilities were not that clean either. Otherwise the room was clean and stayable and the lady at house keeping was lovely. Will not be staying here again.

All in all our stay was nice, buffet brekkie was a great way to start the day. Staff where polite and helpful. Only issues during our stay, the view from our balcony was a roof and a driveway and thats it so really no point having one. The second issue, on our last day we where woken by a 650am wake up call which we had not planned as check out is 11am, when we called back we asked the receptionist about it, he replied call was a mistake and hung up, no apology nothing a tad disappointed given ho nice the staff had been. Overall our stay was nice.
