Staff were awesome and so nice. Great location! I think the room could’ve been cleaner, there were dirty dishes in the cupboard, food on the ground, and hair in the bathroom. However, overall it was a good place to stay.

Liked the location as it suited my requirements for this visit. Room was immaculately clean and we enjoyed the private balcony which was sheltered from the wind. Staff were great and friendly on check in. The room was very small and I didn't realise there would be no desk to work from.

Great staff. We were a bit disappointed with our family room, yes on the website it says no view, however it doesn’t say this on Expedia website, I have learned my lesson now though. I was not expecting to be in a sleepout sort of thing in the car park though, i think it would be fair to actually show true photos of what people will be paying for. The room was clean and everything was topped up daily.

On arrival staff was welcoming, however going into our room it was absolutely freezing and took awhile to heat up as heatpump is old, the bed was terribly uncomfortable, was 2 single bed size that zip together one was lower than other , which resulted in uneven bed, both me and hubby woke up very sore backs and hips, with little sleep, police were on sight over some incident in evening, to do with guests, just the uncomfortable bed and lack of sleep, when i mentioned to the staff on desk at our departure, she seemed unfased by my complaint, i asked for a refund however none was offered, i definately would NOT stay here again and i would not recommend it
