Ample free parking upon arrival. Room was ready on time clean and fresh. Food was all fresh and mains were hot. All the traditional breakfast, bacon eggs, sausages, beans and a toast that works first time. Staff are all friendly and helpful. The hotel is adult only and this is reflected in the caberet with a good variety of comedians, singers and dancers.

Although loved the entertainment, sadly this hotel definitely needs major upgrades to the rooms...... No need for baths, not good getting in and out with my sciatica... Need walk in showers. Bed was too soft... Room was very hot, needs ceiling fan or AC.
