Love this property, it is like coming home when we stay. They could improve check-in time COVID19 is over and when you have to wait until 4:00 to check-in it leaves you in a rush to unpack and get ready to go out for dinner, especially when my husband has to eat at 5:00 because of transplant medication.

Great place
Check in was easy and everything was explained to us in regards to the pool and services available. Our room was more than we expected. It was large, clean and had a good view. Bed was comfortable and the spa bath was good. The shower was good however the handheld shower didn’t work, we spoke to the lady at reception but wasn’t fixed when we left. The heating in the room was unbearable, it made the room stuffy and we asked to have turned down but seems a little lost in translation ( we don’t like to sleep with heating on ) The rooftop heated pool and spa was great and very relaxing. The hotel is located close to some great restaurants and pubs.

For this price point, it's a 8/10. The suite was spacious, and although older, well equipped and comfortable. I would detract points for the gym which just wasn't up to standard for a high end hotel. The weight equipment was old/refurbished and barely functional, and the cardio equipment although relatively new, was low quality. This aspect of the facility was definitely designed with cost cutting in mind.

Told the people at the front there’s black mold in the multiple showers and I have sensitive lungs. If someone can get in there and scrap and clean it properly while we were gone for the day. Wasn’t cleaned. They upgraded us to a room on the next floor up and still had black mold in the showers. Unacceptable. I took some pictures and videos of the incident and no word back. Id book another cleaner hotel especially for the ridiculous prices.
