As a VIP member, I did not receive any special treatment or upgrades. The breakfast was very disappointing, and it’s not worth of the money. I should’ve booked other place. I don’t see it as a 5 star hotel.

This place was horrendous and definitely not worth for the amount their charge. Initially I was given a room with a massive smoke smell, which you could smell from the hall. When asked to change it, they sent someone who said: ‘I can’t smell anything’ - ??? - then moved to another room where the door closet didn’t close properly and the internal lights were kept on, disturbing my sleep. Overall is a badly designed room, where the light system in general is confusing, super noisy with the bathroom fan and a shower that it doesn’t warms up properly. Also not to mention the ridiculous rules to use the pool. It’s not welcoming, it’s not comfortable and it costs a lot. Defeats the whole purpose of a holiday.

At the entrance to the hotel we were met with a disgusting sewage smell for the duration of the stay. 1. Shower head broken - Did get repaired 2. TV in room didn't show more than 2 channels - Did get repaired next day 3. Handle of door hanging off between bedroom and living area so we couldn't close the door for fear of being locked inside 4. Sink in bathroom seemed to take forever to drain 5. Air-con wouldn't drop below 22 degrees After day 3 I got very sick with legionnaires-type symptoms and ended up in hospital. Whilst I have no evidence of this being from the hotel, it is usually caught from poorly maintained air-con units After returning from hospital on the last night of the stay, we needed to request another couple of days stay as I couldn't travel home in such a state. The reception told us they had no rooms. First thing the next morning (5 hours later) we asked a different person, and they miraculously found us another room. Got in to the new room to find the aircon not working. I already had a high temperature and the aircon wouldn;t drop below 29 degrees. Had to call maintenance who didn't fully fix it and spent some time vacuuming the filters in the aircon unit. This made me believe the air-cons were not fully maintained. Eventually, they had to provide a desk top fan. Finally, buffet poor value for money - Around £200.00 for 2 people! Not much selection. Closed early.
