Fantastic
It’s just fabulous service is excellent they cannot do enough to help, room was really spacious and clean and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Food was excellent and great value, my only gripe was that they used glass by the pool but other than that FANTASTIC !!!!

6/10 Good

THERE WAS NO FILTER COFFEE IN THE ROOM AND THE FILTER COFFE IN THE DINING ROOM WAS WAY TOO STRONG. I AM A COFFEE LOVER AND THIS WAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM FOR ME. Also, there was no soap, shower gel etc - first hotel I have been to where this is not provided. We asked for some, which was then brought to the room
