The rooms are in desperate need of refurbishment and from the room you can hear every single noise like someone snoring all night , loud TV, disrespectful customers banging doors and yelling in the night. Shame as the pool is really nice, but apart from that I didn’t enjoy my stay.

Great staff but…….

Friendly, efficient staff, but the owner is milking a dead cow with this hotel. It was ready for a good refurb about 30 Years ago. Cold , dated rooms, lots of lights not working around hotel and health club threadbare and tatty.

The property was very dated and in need of some serious decoration and renovation. The hotel was deadly quiet and had little life. The room itself was in need of refurbing. The bed was old and uncomfortable, the shower didn’t work properly, no ironing facilities in the room. I had to ask for a kettle which should how long the room had been unused. Great location for where I needed to bed but the place needs a serious facelift to attract returning customers.

Needed more staff!

Room was very nice. Originally hadn’t booked for breakfast but decided for £10 each we would add it to the stay. Unfortunately the hotel was very understaffed and breakfast was quite chaotic. The breakfast was ok but we had to wait for clean plates, glasses, food to be replenished. A bit disappointing. Staff were lovely and did well under such circumstances

Disappointing

Disappointing. Room was ok but quite cramped. Went to reception to get towels for the pool and was told they'd run out but they would bring wine down to us. No towels turned up Pool was icy cold. Jacuzzi was dirty and the steam room was out of order. Ladies changing rooms were so cold I couldn't get changed in there. We had to dress over our wet costumes and get sorted in our room. Glad we were only there for the one night

Bedding was clean, bathroom was clean but dated. Rest of room looked to be hoovered/wiped but years of stains and dirt made it feel grubby. The bed was broken and unusable until we saw that a perfectly sized log had fallen over; once we propped the log back up the bed was fine for our 1 night stay. This hotel was fine for a cheap place to sleep for the night. If we were staying for more than 1 night or planned to spend more time at the hotel we would look for alternative accommodation.

On arrival the hotel is very dated and needs a refresh Guess explains why so cheap Heavy smell of weed in the corridors and outside Was unable to upgrade the room as fully hooked but no cars in car park and only 6 guests in the restaurant Was unfortunately next door to a person who screamed out songs all night and was possibly on something, but could not change rooms Pool was good Sauna fitted 2 people in only so be careful if on a group away weekend Food was ok but not much taste
