Hotel is in great location and was very clean, unfortunately it os dated and in need of updating/a refresh. Beds weren't very confortable and there was a lot of noise during the night from other residents shouting in the hallways for prolonged amounts of time. Staff at reception and breakfast were very good, helpful and polite. Breakfast quality wasn't great but view was lovely. Leisure faciliies were tired - pool cold and jacuzzi disappointingly not open.
