8/10 Very good

Staff were excellent throughout. Breakfast was very good, with a vast selection of foods available in the buffet and a lovely choice of sit-down menu. The room was very big, with very comfortable beds. We had plenty of space even with the rollout bed for our teen and we all slept very well. Just felt for 4star the room was a little tired and needs a bit of TLC.

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel! Beautiful spacious rooms. It's a 15 minute walk to the town centre but that was fine for us. If you're not able/wanting to walk that far every day and back, I would look at staying somewhere more central. Otherwise this hotel was excellent and very friendly staff. I would recommend that for the room with the terrace, it would have been nice to have a couple of chairs and a side table to be able to enjoy the terrace. That would be my only recommendation. Staff were friendly and helpful.
