Disliked: Staff & service
Im sorry to say that my stay was not so good. At night there was pipe noise every so often, couldnt sleep because of this. Swimming pool area looked filthy. Something wasnt covered in the steamroom so there was a puddle of boiling water there which burned my foot. That is a massive health and safety hazard. Staff member did go to sort this out after we said something, but there was no empathy, apology or nothing. No care in the world. I screamed when this happened. Nobody bothered to even look what happened until we said something. Breakfast was cold and not nice, vegetarian option is not good could of added a veggie sausage for example. Scramble Eggs tasted like powdered eggs Coffee not good. When checking out explained our experience, but reception didnt seem bothered just seemed like wanted rid of us only said 'shame' no im sorry, not caring or empathic at all. I get it I cant expect much from a 3star hotel but everyone seemed miserable, could atlest improve try to be more apologetic and show some empathy to unhappy customer that pays to have half decent service. Came home hungry, tired and with burned foot instead of rested and happy

Poor quality
We arrived before 6pm but we’re told the only available times that we had to book for breakfast was between 8am and 8:45am! The hotel simply wasn’t 4 star although rated as such on hotels.com website. The room needed updated. The shower had a sunken shower tray which almost flooded over each time it was used and took ages for the water to drain away. There was no hot tub as advertised and the swimming pool steam room and sauna were very disappointing. When dining in the restaurant it seemed like we were on a conveyor belt being pushed along - not at all relaxing or enjoyable!
