Karen

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Property was clean and we had the king suite with extra bed so the room was not small but we went there for the heated pool and it was below our expectations let alone the fact that it was in a different building so the kids had to go through a small parking lot and out in the street with their swimming suits and towles to go back to the room so it was not very convenient. The breakfast was below average with very limited options

Short stay

Staff were very polite and efficient. The room was very spacious and comfortable. Loved the balcony for fresh air. We attended a wedding there and it went very well. A wonderful venue.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The customer interaction and service was really good. Our room only had one since in the bathroom meaning there was limited access to fresh drinking water and the tap position made it hard to fill up bottles of water. They had a sizable gym, but unfortunately, the gym also had a lot of equipment that was broken and unusable.

Our stay was very good. The staff were excellent. My only issue was that each day I had to ask for milk, and on one day tea bags, as house keeping forgot to replenish them. But they did a great job in cleaning tidying and remaking our bed. Overall we were very pleased with our stay.
