The staff were very welcoming kind and accomodating of our needs. We enjoyed the simplicity and cleanliness of the place! The only downside which was definitely not a major was the pool was a little green! Other than that it was awesome and we would stay again if we’re ever in the area :)

The hotel is now let down by the quality of the rooms. Hotel rooms are now tired and facilities such as showers over the bath belong to a bygone era. However food and staff were great.

Great value for money. My room smelt of cigarette smoke which was a shame. Breakfast was good but the coffee was one of the worst I’ve had EVER.
