"Property was excellent and facing the open sea, so a short distance to the beach. Good opportunity for walks from the property. Pizzeria within the premise served very good food. We stayed for 2 nights, and they gave a free welcome drink, which we didn't know had to be consumed on arrival day. We tried to claim the next day but were told no! As a good property chain, we didn't see any harm in extending this welcome service. Wouldn't hurt to just give the welcome drink during the stay, that's how we felt."

"Overall a reasonable 4 night stay for business. Allocated room was small but clean, comfortable and well equipped although lacked a comfortable chair. Breakfast was ok and plentiful, restaurant is very popular in the evening so need to book well in advance. Staff were very helpful. This was a business trip so view wasn't important (room looked over parking area to rear of the hotel) but the building work being undertaken on an adjoining property was noisy and started early. I would stay again if I could be assured of a room either at the front or the other end of the hotel."
