8/10 Good
"Second visit so we obviously like the hotel, great location for the town centre (5mins walk), pool and gym are great ( if your female take a £1 coin for locker, if male you get a cricket ball sized keyring and no where to keep it). Breakfast is good value and quality."

"There was an issue at check in regarding our family room whereby the expedia booking info hadn't pulled through correctly to the hotel. I would recommend emailing the hotel after booking to reconfirm everything. The family room was a decent size, although towels were stained and the free mini's were half used. The pool facilities were lovely. The pool was a little chilly, but jacuzzi very nice and warm."

"Check in was easy and a luvly lady at reception made it go smoothly, room was comfy and clean,great shower, I booked 6 rooms for my family for my 60th and all rooms were fine,enjoyable stay but breakfast was very confusing we were told we all had complimentary continental bit at breakfast were we had to pay? After checking with reception he said we were right then there was no orange juice unless we paid and if you wanted toast and croissants with our continental it was again extra money which I found annoying because without those it was just cereal and fruit? Needs to be looked at,also I told the hotel it was my 60th and I had a card in my room saying Happy 10th Anniversary???"
