My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and very clean; however, there was a bit of dust on the skirting boards beside the bed. The service was outstanding and extremely helpful, particularly when we had an issue with our taxi. The location was good overall, but the entrance could be difficult to find due to the roundabout nearby. The dining experience was a tale of two halves - while the traditional bread was wonderful, the breakfast options were lacking and some items had run out early. The facilities were decent overall.

The location was okay but could be tricky to find due to the road signage. It is a bit remote unless you have a car, but the affordability made up for it. The bar/café area was a nice spot to sit.
