Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
On arrival staff was welcoming, however going into our room it was absolutely freezing and took awhile to heat up as heatpump is old, the bed was terribly uncomfortable, was 2 single bed size that zip together one was lower than other , which resulted in uneven bed, both me and hubby woke up very sore backs and hips, with little sleep, police were on sight over some incident in evening, to do with guests, just the uncomfortable bed and lack of sleep, when i mentioned to the staff on desk at our departure, she seemed unfased by my complaint, i asked for a refund however none was offered, i definately would NOT stay here again and i would not recommend it
