6/10 Good

Spacious room with comfortable beds. It's the third or fourth time we stayed and the rooms aren't thoroughly cleaned. We find toys or dirty socks under drapes or beds. The amenities are in need of some decent care and maintenance. TVs are old and difficult to cast. However, the location is very convenient, ample parking within the property and amenities cater for a range of needs. E.g. gym, restaurant, bar.

My husband, me and our teenage/grown up daughters really enjoyed our two days in a two bedroom apartment. The hotel area was very nice with flowers and Christmas lights. And we had a good dinner and lovely breakfasts at the cosy restaurant.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

I love staying here staff are so friendly the renovated rooms are cozy and home like when you're away for a work trip. The only real downside is that the entertainment is behind the times. It would be great to have a streaming service on the TV to watch movies or shows or be able to cast from your phone (Netflix, Disney, Prime etc). This is honestly something that could sway me to book a different spot even though everything else is spot on. I was offered a cable by your helpful staff for my phone but I often need to use my phone at the same time or it had nowhere to sit while plugged in so not a very practical soloution.
