"We stayed for two nights and unfortunately had to swap rooms due to other guests being a little inconsiderate. First room was very basic but okay for just having somewhere to sleep. The second room was definitely an upgrade, quieter park of the hotel, more space in the room and choices on TV was better. Staff were amazing though out and nothing was too much trouble. Would happily stay here again (on the quieter side) and recommend to family and friends"
