I liked the property very much, convenient, friendly staff and good food. Big rooms and comfortable. The only thing I didn’t like was lots of hairs in the bathroom floor- cleaners need to make sure that they Hoover the hairs… not pleasant.

Fleeting visit.

Our flight landed on time just before midnight. This of course meant that we would be checking in very late....no problem as manager there to welcome us . We settled in quickly but as we were booked in for just one night we were checking out around midday........we enjoyed a relaxing walk around the grounds behind the hotel and then moved on. Would certainly stay there again and recommend the hotel, especially for a family.

We had a problem that we needed help with and even when we arrived near midnight we got the help we needed. We went back to same hotel a couple of days later because is close to airport and offers a shuttle. When we arrived they had all the paperwork ready to sing and they even had what we requested before waiting for us in the room. Restaurant was very good too. We'll be back if in the area.
