BE WARNED. Building work being carried out within hotel between main building and annex. Starts at 7am with the hammering/removal of the wooden frames around the previous days concrete. Crane is directly over hotel so unless you are out all day your stay will be effected by the noise of the building works especially if you use the rooftop pool or your balcony. Breakfast was adequate but staff slow to restock so drinks dispensers & milk etc constantly running out. Quite a few school children & their associated noise, pushing of all the buttons in lifts when they got out & running around corridors plus take over of pool etc. Entertainment was in main entrance so getting in & out hotel during performances was challenging. Staff polite & friendly but unable to do anything about the noise ( suggest investing in earplugs for each room instead of the sewing kit, shoe cleaner, shower caps & toiletries)

I really wanted to like this property,as it was a pleasant check in,reception was very good and initial impressions of the hotel were very good..However the room left alot to be desired,at first glance it looked great with a pretty good cooking area with enough utensils,the bed was pretty comfortable for my liking,however the bathroom smelt musty most of the time,the shower head leaked at the bottom abit so the pressure wasnt that great,the handle on the side of the bath was a bit loose and would probably break if someone put any weight on it and the tub had visible signs of ŕepair.The main room was a good size with plenty of seating,however one of the wardrobe doors will probably fall off with the next guest as its REALLY loose,the external handle on the balcony door was loose.Entertainment wise there was like 7 maybe 8 channels on the tv and the wifi in room was horrendous by todays standards to be fair they only use the words "surf the web" with their free Internet claim but it was difficult just getting a signal in the room,it was possibly to stream a bit of netflix on a good day and then finally the housekeeping that would leave balcony door unlocked which wouldn't be an issue if you didnt share the same space with 2 other rooms!They even managed to not close my room door properly on on one day,however nothing happened and i was using the safe so i didn't make an issue of it.Anoher thing was the door to the adjoining room offered NO sound protection at all very noisy.
