the room was large and comfortable. it had a quiet location. the staff were very polite and friendly. the evening meal service was excellent.
the mini fridge in my room was switched off. towels were not provided at the pool unless i paid for the spa, which i found inconvenient. the hot tub bubbles automatically turned on and off every few minutes (it was quite annoying).

underwhelming stay

broken remotestale pastries
The room was not up to par. the television remote did not work. i requested assistance but no one ever came to fix it. this was frustrating because i wanted to relax in the evening after a long day. also, the breakfast buffet was chaotic. many items were empty and the staff seemed overwhelmed. there was a long queue for coffee and the tables were not cleared promptly. the food quality was also disappointing. The pastries were stale and the hot items were lukewarm.

The hotel has spacious rooms and my double room had a good condition. The fish and chips from the bar area were also tasty (i loved the vinegar!).
My stay was slightly disturbed due to wedding noises late at night as guests were loud in the corridors.
