10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic place to stay. My room overlooked the pool and was wonderfully quiet overnight. Wonderfully comfortable big bed with perfect pillows! Cleaned every day. I appreciated the water and biscuits in the room. The staff on the front desk were really friendly and incredibly helpful. The pub was great fun for pre-dinner drinks. Highly recommended"
