We only had a one night stay so didn’t really get to see much of the hotel or its facilities. What we did see was ok but some areas are looking a bit tired.

Mustafa, 2-night trip

According to the hotel description on Expedia, the hotel has coin laundry facilities, but when I arrived at the hotel, I found out the hotel does not have any of those, which was extremely inconvenient.
KANAE, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a lovely stay, large comfortable bed, great food and beautiful area.
Ewelina, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was tired and in urgent need of TLC. It was not the cleanest of hotels either. I was disappointed as I have always admired from a far and was looking forward to this stay with my family. Cleanliness should be a given at least but sadly I had to endure what was as it was under staffed and if I asked any questions it always seemed to be a struggle or inconvenience.
