10/10 Excellent
"Breakfast was great. Fresh fruit and fresh juices/smoothies were really good compared to most other hotel breakfast buffet options. Pool seemed smaller than the photos but great to cool off after a day around the city centre, before showering and getting ready to go out for the evening. Drinks were very reasonable at the roof top bar and the sunset nachos were great with a jug of sangria. Would recommend this hotel. Only negative was there was no coffee machine in the room."
