The staff were great and supportive when i misplaced my key. The room was clean and quiet. I was a bit afraid of stepping down into the spa bath for a shower, a handle to hold would have been great. All in all a great place to stay.

This is an older hotel but itโ€™s still well maintained, I had my daughter and 2 grandsons stay with me and it suited our needs. Kids loved the spa. Room was clean, maybe under the couch needs checking as we moved it and swept up what was under it. The grounds were exceptionally clean. The communal clothes line was a great idea. Single bed was uncomfortable but the Queen seems better
