We last stayed here 6 years ago and things have gone downhill since then. Several issues in our room but the main one was that our door kept malfunctioning and wouldn’t lock. Housekeeping left our room unlocked for several hours whilst we were out for the day.

The hotel is becoming quite dated and needs some urgent maintenance. The rooms are very dated and the carpet smells weird. The room I booked was supposed to have a queen and "twin" bed. We had a Queen and a single bed which was very small. The food from the restaurant was not good. Our burgers were burnt. The bar staff were not friendly or experiences. They couldn't make a spicy a margarita. The hot tub was not as hot as it was when we stayed 2 years ago and it was dirty. It's in a lovely location but it needs a major overhaul. No restaurants open late nearby.

We have stayed before property is in need of some maintenance in the accommodation side of things. Our room was neat and tidy however our mattress had see better days. We have come across this in the past. They definitely get there money’s worth out of mattresses. Buffet breakfast was lovely however the restaurant itself could do with a revamp. We’ve been going there for 13years and not much has changed.
