Room was well presented, clean and had everything you need. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. The facilities were great, the outdoor pool on roof has a great view, the gym also benefits from the view, some of the kit could use a service. The indoor pool was a let down, little more than a communal bath with couples snogging and kids tearing about and you need to duck to get in due to the low ceiling if you are above average height!
