Adequate

Hotel suited our needs. The room was spacious and clean. The extractor fan went all night, we couldnt turn it off. We had drinks at the bar and even though we ordered a certain spirit, at a certain price, we received a different, cheaper one. Even when challenged the barman said it was correct. Our second order was watched and we saw the wrong one being poured. It was changed and still didnt taste right. No refund offered.
