The hotel is in a good location. Pool area was great. Room was clean and had good amenities. It stated sound proof and block out curtains, however this wasn’t the case for us. The light came in through the door frame and windows as so we were up earlier than I would’ve liked to be on holiday. Also was a bit noisy, but might have just been due to the position of our room as we were near the pool. Overall was a nice stay.

Overall the hotel is an ideal place to locate yourself while visiting Fro. Staff friendly, accommodation spacious and clean. It lay thing that could have made room better was places to put your cloths, wardrobe was ok but little shelf space for smaller items. Bathroom is spacious and well laid out. Nice shower gel and body lotion.
