a few bumps in the road
low water pressure temperature fluctuation
The location seemed fine. It was close to where i needed to be.
My biggest issue was the shower. the water pressure was practically nonexistent. It was more like standing under a leaky faucet. plus, the temperature fluctuated wildly. It went from scalding hot to freezing cold without warning. it.

adequate stay, but some issues
crappy pillows expensive food
the room was clean enough.
The pillows were awful. I barely slept. the mattress felt old and cheap, resulting in back pain each morning. plus, the price of the food was high, especially considering it seemed similar to microwaved meals.

Relaxing Stay with Fantastic Amenities
indoor pool outdoor pool modern gym billiard room
I appreciated the indoor and outdoor pools. The spa area was also a welcome addition to my stay, and I used the cinema to wind down in the evenings. The gym included up-to-date equipment. Table tennis and the billiard room provided entertainment throughout the week.
The pitch and putt was temporarily unavailable, but I understand it's due to reopen soon.
