"The suite was amazing. Very clean and all amenities were there. The small kitchenette was great and we would have used it if we were there for longer. The pool was lovely and well maintained. The lounge bar was friendly and the food looked good. We ate outwith the hotel but were tempted to stay as it looked lovely. The staff were friendly. The only issue we had was that there were three of us in the booking so I had to ask to get the sofa bed made up. This didn’t seem to be a problem but when we returned to the room the sofa bed was revealed but not made up with linen."
